Abstract

In this article, the author attempts a symbolic interpretation of the practices of urban space appropriation. The focus is on individuals' interpretations of the nature and purpose of using different urban spaces. Understanding the appropriation of urban space as a form of civic activism, the author conceptualizes the methodology of constructing an "active urban dweller" by referring to the personal experience of individuals' interpretations of places.
