Description

The concept of public space as an ideological value is a complex and multifaceted topic. For urban planners, architects, and designers, it may seem like a challenge to create a public space that meets the needs of promoters and authorities, but for Manuel Delgado, this idea is more nuanced. In his analysis, Delgado argues that the ideal public space is not just about providing a functional area for people to move through, but also about creating a space where democratic values such as citizenship, convivence, and civism can be lived out. However, when external signs of inequality and failure appear in these spaces, this vision of a harmonious and inclusive public sphere begins to unravel. This book explores the tension between the ideal of a public space as a site for social interaction and the harsh realities of urban life.
