A DIGITAL ANALYSIS OF LAND PLOTS AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT PLANNING
type: item
description: The relevance of the study is driven by the challenges of modern urbanization, such as infrastructure overload, social and environmental issues, which necessitate new tools for sustainable urban development. The article presents the development of a web application designed to automate the planning of development for individual land plots within the framework of comprehensive territorial development. A comparative analysis of existing software solutions (ArcGIS Urban, CityZenith, CityEngine) was conducted, revealing their limitations, including high cost and complexity of adaptation. As an alternative, the architecture and a functional algorithm for a web application are proposed and implemented. The application integrates data from the Public Cadastral Map and OpenStreetMap to analyze infrastructure within a 500-meter radius of a plot. The system automatically generates recommendations on permissible types of development based on Land Use and Development Rules. The application's operation is demonstrated through the analysis of plots in Volgograd, including functional and load testing. The developed tool offers practical value for municipal authorities, developers, and designers by optimizing the urban planning decision-making process.

ASSESSING PUBLIC SATISFACTION WITH URBAN AIR QUALITY UNDER THE “CLEAN AIR” FEDERAL PROJECT
type: item
description: Environmental pollution, particularly air pollution, remains a pressing issue for residents of modern industrial cities. One of the key tools in combating air pollution in Russia is the federal “Clean Air” project, which aims to reduce emissions of priority pollutants. Within the framework of the project, measures are being implemented to modernize production capacities and introduce advanced technologies designed to ensure compliance with hygiene standards for chemical substances in the atmospheric air and achieve an acceptable risk level for public health. The success of these initiatives requires a comprehensive approach, which must include the assessment of public satisfaction with the outcomes of implemented measures. Therefore, it is necessary to develop methodological approaches to determine the level of public satisfaction with air quality and the effectiveness of the measures taken under the project. The study focuses on analyzing the opinions and expectations of residents in industrial cities participating in the project. The toolkit for assessing the integral indicator of public satisfaction should include modules on socio-demographic characteristics, self-assessed health, subjective well-being, and satisfaction with air quality. In this context, it is important to evaluate overall air quality as well as specific pollution indicators and changes in air quality over time. This allows for a more objective understanding of public reactions to the efforts of industrial entities, government agencies, and local authorities. The findings of this study may contribute to the improvement of environmental policy and the enhancement of citizens' quality of life within the framework of sustainable development.

SOCIO-FUNCTIONAL FOUNDATIONS OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN OF THE VISITOR CENTER OF A NATURAL PARK (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE VOLGOGRAD REGION)
type: item
description: The purpose of the study is to identify effective principles of architectural design of visitor centers of natural parks based on socio-functional analysis. The data of an expert sociological survey of the staff of the visit centers conducted in August 2024 with the assistance of the Committee of Natural Resources, Forestry and Ecology of the region are presented. The sample size was 15 questions covering key aspects such as functional areas, technology, environmental sustainability and cultural heritage. The survey results showed that the most sought-after areas are information and museum areas, which highlights the importance of educational content. Accessibility, environmental protection and the introduction of modern technologies are key aspects in the design of nature park visitor centers. The importance of moderate innovation and the creation of comfortable spaces with an emphasis on environmental sustainability is also revealed. The data obtained can be used.

STRUCTURE AND FUNCTIONS OF THE WATER-GREEN FRAME IN THE GRID DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM
type: item
description: In the context of the global environmental turn, the sustainable development of urban areas is aimed at creating new spatial paradigms based on the theoretical study of the structure and functions of the water-green frame as a key element of the urban planning system. The relevance of this work is due to the lack of methodological foundations for the formation of the water-green frame. The purpose of this study is analysis of the structure and functions of the water-green frame based on a structural and systemic approach. The methodological basis of the work is based on the principles of scientific structuralism, which allow us to consider the water and green framework as a sign system with invariant relations between its elements, as well as on the system analysis used in urban planning. The article reveals the essence of the water and green framework as an open, multi-level system that integrates natural and anthropogenic-natural elements into a single whole. The article reveals the essence of the water-green frame as an open, multi-level system that integrates natural and anthropogenic-natural elements into a single whole. The article presents an analysis of the structural properties of the water-green frame (integrity, connectivity, and hierarchy), as well as a classification of the external and internal factors that influence its formation (climatic, anthropogenic, topographic, etc.). Special attention is given to the social functions of the frame, including its impact on the mental and physical health of the population, the development of social capital, and the formation of territorial identity.

ANCHOR OBJECTS IN THE STRUCTURE OF THE CITY: APPROACHES TO ASSESSING THEIR IMPACT ON THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT
type: item
description: The article presents a comprehensive analysis of methods for assessing the impact of anchor objects on the quality of the urban environment. Theoretical foundations of the concept of “anchor object” and its role as a center for forming economic, social, spatial, and environmental linkages are examined. Based on Russian and international studies, approaches to evaluating university campuses, business centers, cultural and sports complexes are analyzed. The review shows that existing assessment methods rely on index-based approaches, benchmarking, urban microclimate modeling, and socio-economic and institutional assessments. It is demonstrated that while current methods are highly detailed, they are mainly limited to separate aspects of influence. The authors conclude that there is a shortage of comprehensive methodologies capable of integrating engineering, social, economic, and environmental indicators into a unified assessment system. A direction for further research is proposed - the development of an integrated methodology for assessing the quality of the urban environment that ensures accuracy and comparability of research results, contributing to sustainable and balanced urban development in the planning and operation of anchor objects.

INTEGRATIVE THEORY OF URBAN FORMATION AND DEVELOPMENT: SYNTHESIS OF TEKTOLOGY, CENTAURISTICS, AND THE CLUSTER APPROACH
type: item
description: This paper advances an integrative theoretical framework for understanding urban formation and development by synthesizing three complementary strands of thought. First, it draws on A. A. Bogdanov’s Tektology as a universal science of organization, emphasizing systemic principles of structure, feedback, and transformation. Second, it incorporates D. S. Danin’s concept of Centauristics, which highlights the methodological potential of reconciling seemingly incompatible elements through constructive complementarity. Third, it employs a cluster-based model of urban systems to operationalize processes of specialization, integration, and disintegration across spatial and temporal scales. Within this framework, the city is conceptualized as a multi-level, adaptive system in which formative and regulatory mechanisms, recursive feedbacks, and the dynamics of ingression and desingression shape the emergence and evolution of functional clusters. The approach provides practical instruments for comprehensive urban diagnostics, design of inter-cluster interfaces, adaptive coordination, and interdisciplinary capacity-building. Special attention is given to temporal integration, balancing short-term operational measures with long-term strategic trajectories, and establishing mechanisms for horizontal and vertical governance coordination. By emphasizing crises as transition points that catalyze reform and innovation, the paper outlines a platform for empirical validation and pilot implementation across diverse urban contexts. The proposed framework contributes to urban theory by linking systemic organizational principles with applied tools for sustainable and resilient urban development.

CULTURAL AND LEISURE PREFERENCES OF THE POPULATION OF THE VOLOGDA REGION
type: item
description: The article presents the results of a study of cultural and leisure preferences of the Vologda region population, taking into account the territorial specifics. The empirical basis of the work was the data from a sociological survey conducted as part of the “Monitoring of the economic situation and social well-being of the Vologda region population for 2024” ( n = 1500), as well as official statistics and national public opinion polls. It has been established that the dominant forms of leisure in the region are informal communication (“meetings with friends”) and passive recreation. Territorial differences have been identified: for residents of large cities (Vologda, Cherepovets) active and social forms of leisure are more typical, whereas in rural areas passive practices and household management prevail. Cinema is the most popular among the population, while both Soviet and modern Russian films and TV series are positively evaluated. Interest in literature, on the contrary, is weakly expressed. Digitalization is transforming cultural consumption, but the Internet is mainly used for communication and news, rather than for the consumption of “high” cultural products. The study also showed that a significant part of the respondents noted a decrease in the number of cultured people in their environment, especially in Vologda. In the mass consciousness, a “cultured person” is associated with good manners, politeness, education and erudition. The results emphasize the need to take regional specifics into account when developing cultural policy.

THE SONIC ENVIRONMENT OF CITIES IN COMPUTER GAMES: WHY IT IS OF INTEREST TO SOCIOLOGISTS
type: item
description: The article explores the sociological dimensions of urban soundscapes reproduced in computer games, where sound functions not as a secondary effect but as a medium of cultural memory, identity, and social critique. The study aims to demonstrate how the practice of listening to game cities generates new modes of perceiving and interpreting urban environments. The first part analyzes the sonic strategies of memorialization and historicization: the archiving of vanished sounds, the reconstruction of acoustic epochs, and the documentary or museological logics embedded in game design. Drawing on examples from “Assassin’s Creed”, “Mafia III”, “L.A. Noire”, and “The Witcher”, “Atomic Heart” the article argues that games construct an “audio archive” of history in which the soundscape becomes a lived form of the past and a medium of emotional memory. The second part focuses on the political and satirical functions of sound. Titles such as “Grand Theft Auto”, “Sleeping Dogs”, “Night Call”, and “Like a Dragon/Yakuza” are examined as acoustic laboratories of the metropolis, where noise, accents, radio shows, advertising signals, and urban voices operate as instruments of social reflection. Through sound, the player recognizes the “other” - by voice, intonation, or the density of urban noise - and thus enters a space of ethical engagement. Applying the frameworks of soundscape studies and the sociology of everyday listening, the article interprets computer games as audiovisual laboratories of the contemporary city. In these digital environments, hearing becomes not only a means of navigation and empathy but also a form of social cognition that interweaves memory, politics, and aesthetics.

INTERACTIVE DIGITAL EXHIBITION OF TERRITORY OBJECTS IN VIRTUAL REALITY
type: item
description: The article analyzes modern trends in the use of virtualization technologies in the museum and exhibition sphere. It describes the development of a concept for a software and information solution for creating a digital exposition of objects of the territory, which involves the creation of three-dimensional interactive models of locations, including cultural and historical monuments and their contextual environment. The software architecture of the digital exposition project, an approach to choosing objects of virtual display and the formation of additional user experience are proposed. The implementation of several related virtual scenes based on the landmarks of the Volgograd region is demonstrated: the 19th-century Lutheran Church in the village of Verkhniy Yeruslan and the Verkhneeruslansky lock bridge across the Yeruslan River in the Staropoltavsky district. The stages of creating 3D models of the central objects of the exposition, other components of the location of their placement, as well as the interactive functionality of the scenes are shown.

ANALYSIS OF SURFACE URBAN HEAT ISLAND INTENSITY IN SUMMER AND WINTER SEASONS BASED ON LANDSAT 9 DATA
type: item
description: As part of this study, Landsat 9 images were selected for the summer of 2024 and the winter of 2024-2025. Land surface temperature (LST) was calculated within the administrative boundaries of Volgograd, and the intensity of summer and winter urban heat islands was assessed and compared using two approaches: UHI-driven and land-cover-driven. The results indicate the presence of an urban heat island in Volgograd during both summer and winter seasons; however, its spatial localization may differ depending on the time of year. It was also found that cropland areas lead to negative UHI intensity values in both seasons, whereas the influence of water bodies on winter surface UHI intensity may be minimal.

EXPERIENCE OF DEVELOPING LOCAL UNIVERSITIES IN A HISTORICAL URBAN ENVIRONMENT ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF AMSTERDAM
type: item
description: In this article, the authors examine the experience of developing the University Quarter of Amsterdam, which is an example of integrating the educational function into the historical environment and modern urban planning solutions. The authors emphasize the importance of preserving the cultural and historical heritage during the modernization and expansion of university territories, as well as the need to create open, permeable public spaces that promote active interaction between the university and the urban community. Particular attention is paid to approaches to adapting historical buildings to modern functions without losing their authenticity, as well as the development of infrastructure solutions - pedestrian routes, water communications and connecting transport corridors - to improve the accessibility of the territory. The article demonstrates that a harmonious combination of historical identity with innovative urban planning concepts contributes to the formation of a dynamic, sustainable and socially integrated urban environment. The analysis is based on the materials of the strategic master plan “University Quarter”, prepared jointly by the University of Amsterdam, the municipality and the studio of urban design and landscape architecture West8. The article provides cultural and historical experience of the university development, the current state and problem areas, solutions and the university's vision. The experience of the University of Amsterdam serves as a valuable example for the development of strategies for the development of university territories in the historic centers of other cities, focused on the preservation of heritage and active participation of citizens.

ON THE PROBLEM OF THE APPLICATION OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TECHNOLOGIES IN THE TASKS OF URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT
type: item
description: Artificial intelligence is actively penetrating the urban planning industry, offering new opportunities to optimize processes and increase efficiency. Machine learning, computer vision, and big data analysis technologies make it possible to automate design, optimize urban planning process management, increase safety, and reduce costs at all stages of an object's life cycle - from design to operation. However, the widespread adoption of artificial intelligence faces challenges, such as the need for standardization, significant investments, and cybersecurity. The article examines the advantages and disadvantages of using a probabilistic and deterministic approach to artificial intelligence for the tasks of building and shaping the architectural appearance of urban infrastructure facilities. An example of the development of a knowledge base of an automated information system for the layout of cladding materials on the facades of urban buildings is given.

THE ELECTRIC BUS THROUGH THE EYES OF THE TOWNSPEOPLE
type: item
description: Decarbonization of the transport sector can play a crucial role in mitigating the effects of climate change and its damage to ecosystems. From 07/01/2024 to 12/01/2024, a team of authors conducted a survey of residents of Volgograd, the purpose of which was to assess the city's transport infrastructure, the level of dynamic impact of public transport on buildings and structures, its environmental friendliness, comfort, safety, and identification of consumer properties of a new type of public transport - electric bus. 435 people were interviewed. The survey results showed that 56.2% of residents prefer buses to travel around the city, while almost every fifth resident prefers to use an electric bus. 52.2% of residents consider the most effective measures to reduce noise and dynamic impact on buildings to be landscaping of roadside areas and the replacement of diesel public transport with electric buses. 85.6% of respondents consider electric buses to be an environmentally safe mode of transport. 61.2% supported the replacement of diesel buses with electric buses. The majority (95.0%) of the surveyed citizens consider a comfortable acoustic environment to be one of the important advantages, and 2/3 of the respondents believe that an electric bus is the safest form of public transport. 85.1% of citizens would like to replace buses with electric buses. The results clearly show the need for further development of electric buses as an energy efficient, environmentally safe and economical form of public transport in megacities.

URBAN DEVELOPMENT OF SATELLITE CITIES (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE CITY OF VOLZHSKY, VOLGOGRAD REGION)
type: item
description: The article contains a brief historical overview of the main theories of urban formation in the first half of the 20th century (garden city, sotsgorod, work settlement), which had a significant impact on the location of the city of Volzhsky and the formation of its spatial planning structure. The main prerequisites for the emergence of satellite cities in the world and Soviet theory and practice of urban planning are considered. The history of the origin of G. From the village for hydroelectric power plant builders to the center of a new territorial production complex, it was noted that the construction of the city went beyond solving only construction and technological issues, it became a landmark phenomenon of Soviet urban planning, the embodiment of the idea of post-war revival. The article describes the specifics of the formation of the architectural and planning structure of the 1st stage of the construction of the Volzhsky center, and identifies the compositional features of its construction. The study identified the main characteristics of the 1st stage of the Volzhsky construction: the ratio of open spaces in the structure of residential and mixed-use buildings, the types of planning modules for the development of historical neighborhoods, the features of the "Volga style". The necessity of understanding the value attitude towards the Soviet architectural and urban planning heritage of the 1950s and its unequivocal recognition as a monument of the era with unique value characteristics is substantiated.

THE AESTHETIC COMPONENT OF THE GREEN FRAMEWORK OF THE VOLGOGRAD URBAN PLANNING SYSTEM
type: item
description: The study is devoted to the development of an approach to the evaluation of the Volgograd urban planning system, where the key role is assigned to the objects of the green frame structure in the context of aesthetic perception. The framework in question combines pragmatism and aesthetics, evolving from works of art to functional elements, and then to the need to balance these aspects. The aesthetics of the urban planning system, depending on the cultural context, forms the artistic style of garden and park facilities. The analysis of the aesthetics of open space helps to understand the impact of cultural and historical ties on citizens, which is important for modern aesthetics and video ecology. The theory of aesthetic and visual assessment of the green framework is especially relevant for riverine cities, where strategies for developing visual representations are important. Therefore, in the context of globalization and consolidation of urban planning systems, the importance of objects of the green framework structure for the formation of the visual environment and territorial identity is emphasized. All this makes it possible to achieve sustainable development of the urban planning system by integrating nature and maintaining a balance between building and open areas.

STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS AS A TOOL FOR ASSESSING AREAS WITH POTENTIAL FOR TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT (ON THE EXAMPLE OF VOLGOGRAD)
type: item
description: It is known that the basis of the urban framework are large transport highways that ensure the functioning of the city as a single system. In the development of linear cities, the transport factor is crucial. In this regard, it is of interest to use the methodology of structural and functional analysis proposed by A. E. Gutnov as a tool for identifying the urban framework for analyzing the territory of Volgograd, a typical example of a linear city. The features of the structural and functional organization of Volgograd, identified during the analysis, substantiate the need for the development of urban areas in pedestrian zones of rapid public transport stations, which is one of the key provisions of the concept of transit-oriented development (TOP), which has become an important area of urban planning in recent decades. The article describes a structural and functional analysis of the Volgograd territory in the QGIS GIS based on open data to determine patterns of change in structural and functional indicators of zones with the potential of TOP. The absence of a direct correlation between the connectivity and functional value of peripheral territories with the potential of TOP, confirmed during the analysis, corresponds to the criterion described by A. E. Gutnov for classifying territories as a potential reserve for the development of the urban planning system.

EXPERIMENTAL SETTLEMENTS IN THE SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE COUNTRY: LOCALIZATION AND FORMS OF ORGANIZATION
type: item
description: The concept of a "new experimental settlement" appeared in the Spatial Development Strategy of the Russian Federation until 2030 and needs to be clarified and developed in the methodology of allocation and implementation. The proposed text attempts to define the spatial principles of localization of experimental cities and the main models and drivers of their development. Taking into account a number of factors, it is suggested not to create such settlements from scratch, but to reformat existing small towns. Potential candidates for experimental cities are highlighted among the settlements of the Lower Volga region. The possibility of using a combined development model by experimental cities is considered, for this purpose the most suitable models of urban development and the potential of their complementarity are analyzed. The principle of a polymodel approach in the development of new experimental settlements is substantiated. Local communities are considered as a key factor in the success of the experimental city project. It suggests ways to scale the positive experience of the project and describes its limitations.

THE MAIN APPROACHES TO LANDSCAPING OF ROADSIDE TERRITORIES (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE VOLGOGRAD REGION)
type: item
description: Techniques for creating optimal eco-friendly, resource-saving, and visually aesthetic landscaping schemes for decorative roadside lanes on highways are considered. The article analyzes the domestic and foreign experience of planting green spaces, including fruit trees and berry bushes, both in large cities and along the main highways connecting settlements. Only those breeds and plant species that are noise-canceling, protect and clean the environment from the exhaust gases of moving vehicles, and are also capable of delaying dust and sand storms and snow drifts are recommended. Planting low-growing berry bushes, such as currants and rosehips, creates an aesthetic appearance, and their resistance to various weather conditions minimizes their care. The study plays an important role in understanding the importance of greening roadside lanes in steppe, semi-desert and desert-type regions, as well as in extreme climate conditions where hot weather in summer and cold, icy winters prevent trees from growing and creating a natural protective barrier. By choosing plants correctly, it is possible to purify the soil from impurities of heavy metals such as lead, zinc and copper, to absorb phenols, fluorine and sulfur.

FORMATION OF THE GREEN FRAMEWORK OF THE URBAN PLANNING SYSTEM "GREATER VOLGOGRAD"
type: item
description: The green framework is a complex structure where each element (core, corridor, etc.) performs unique functions that support the environmental sustainability of the urban planning system. For the successful functioning of this system, it is necessary to have a unified spatial territorial strategy, in which the key task is to integrate the green framework into urban and regional planning. This requires the development of an integrated approach that takes into account not only the preservation of existing green areas, but also the creation of new ones, especially in areas subject to the greatest anthropogenic impact. The prospects for the sustainable development of the region directly depend on success in supporting the health and integration of ecosystems. This requires a combination of efforts from all stakeholders, including government and municipal authorities, environmental organizations, private businesses, and local communities. Joint actions to strengthen the green framework can be an effective tool for adapting to climate change, protecting biodiversity, and providing future generations with a healthy and sustainable environment. The daily life of urban planning systems extends beyond the city limits, having a significant impact on the surrounding areas. These systems shape the use of suburban areas and largely determine their appearance. Large cities with populations exceeding one million people have the greatest impact on neighboring territories, transforming them depending on their needs. In Russia, such cities are mainly concentrated in the European part of the country. Their development and the dynamics of life inevitably lead to changes in the landscape and infrastructure of suburban areas, contributing to their integration into the overall metropolitan system. All these questions and objectives of the scientific article are a continuation of the scientific school of Academician A.V. Antyufeev, who, together with Professor V. I. Atopov introduced the con…

THE FORMATION OF AN ENERGY-EFFICIENT QUARTER OF THE UNIVERSITY CAMPUS AS PART OF THE RECONSTRUCTION OF THE DEPRESSED PRODUCTION AREA OF THE KRASNY OKTYABR METALLURGICAL PLANT IN VOLGOGRAD
type: item
description: Currently, urban centers in the Russian Federation are faced with the task of developing and developing domestic technologies, which involves the creation of a network of interuniversity campuses and the integration of educational and business spheres to achieve a synergistic effect. Not all cities have the ability to integrate a campus into a central dense urban structure. At the same time, in recent decades, modern megacities have faced a complex of problems related to the degradation of the territories of former industrial zones, high traffic load, air pollution and a shortage of recreational areas in conditions of densification of buildings. Inefficient use of territories and a low level of environmental safety reduce the quality of life of citizens. These challenges require a revision of traditional approaches to the planning and renovation of urban areas. As an alternative to traditional zoning (residential areas, industrial zones, city centers, recreational areas), a model of self-sufficient territorial units based on the mixed-use format is proposed. Its structure harmoniously combines residential, recreational, educational and industrial functions, ensuring maximum accessibility and integration of various spheres of life. This model will make it possible to comprehensively solve the accumulated problems in cities and create a more sustainable, energy-efficient and balanced urban environment. The article examines: the historical path of campuses in the world, from the origin of the term to its transformation today; the world experience of applying the university model in depressed territories and the analysis of the former industrial territory of the metallurgical plant "Krasny Oktyabr" Volgograd. The authors propose the placement of one of the options for an interuniversity campus on the former industrial territory with an assessment of the prospective development of the territory.

DEMOLITION OF BUILDINGS THROUGH THE PRISM OF THE MEDIA, A FRAME ANALYSIS USING THE EXAMPLE OF FOUR AREAS
type: item
description: The article examines how the demolition of buildings got on the agenda and became a relevant and interesting news story for the townspeople. The media has become a tool in the hands of public figures, allowing them to highlight the demolition, draw the attention of citizens to it and identify important issues related, on the one hand, to the preservation of historical buildings, and, on the other, to the protection of those buildings that do not have a protected status, but are still valuable to citizens. The conflict over demolition mainly revolves around those sites that are not included in the Unified Register of Cultural Heritage Sites or in the list of identified cultural heritage sites, and their fate is determined by the decision of the owner. The submission of an application for the inclusion of an object in the list temporarily stops the demolition work. Reports of demolition in the information field arise unexpectedly, they are accompanied by footage from the scene, archival photos of objects, and subsequent rapidly developing events undoubtedly arouse interest. The media plays a key role in covering the demolition, directly influencing the perception of the value of an object. The article lists the main frames used in the messages, as well as the differences in the description of the facts of demolition in Yekaterinburg, Tyumen, Kurgan and Chelyabinsk.

THE STRUCTURE OF URBAN DAILY LIFE
type: item
description: The article examines the existing views on the structure of everyday life. Based on the previously given definition of this concept, a new view of the structure of urban everyday life is being established as the most relevant in the era of total urbanization. Separate aspects of urban daily life (ecological, social, architectural and virtual) are considered as common and stable ideas of people about four ontological realities — nature, social relations, architectural space and virtual space. Examples of manifestations in urban life are given. The thesis is proposed that urban daily life is created by both development and sustainability of each of these parts, as well as the dynamics of their mutual integration or conflict.

THE RIGHT TO THE CITY: TOWARDS THE HISTORY OF THE CONCEPT
type: item
description: The article attempts a historical and conceptual analysis of the "right to the city," a political and philosophical concept that means the right of citizens to transform urban life. The "right to the city" is a concept focused on the orderly and informed participation of different groups of citizens in the common space of the city. The first part of the article touches on the biography, creativity and own definitions of this concept in the works of the French Marxist philosopher Henri Lefebvre. The concept of the right to a city was first formulated by him in the article "The Right to a city" (1967). At the end of the XX — beginning of the XXI century. This concept has become the basis for discussing the problem of social justice in the urban context both on a theoretical level in the works of academic authors from social theory, sociology, urban studies, and on a political level, becoming a popular slogan for urban social movements around the world, including Russia. In 2001, the City Statute, based on the idea of the right to the city, was consolidated at the level of the federal constitutional legislation of Brazil. The key difficulty of implementing the "right to the city" in practice is related to its semantic ambiguity. Another difficulty is related to the declarative nature and the lack of legal and real mechanisms for its implementation in the political and legal sphere. Finally, the problematic side of this right lies in the difficulty of distinguishing between justified and unjustified demands within the framework of the right to a city.
