City Snares and Urban Violence Directed at Besieged Neighborhoods

Abstract

Since the nineteenth century, urbanization has continued at macro and minor scales without letup. Harvey emphasizes the need of the terms which will ensure for us to understand the connection between the elements of environment and complicated social interactions. As Jacob states, these changes can be noticed by ordinary people even if they can’t be conceptualized. Therefore, field studies offer opportunities for new conceptualizations. This study includes the effort of conceptualizing a part of urban/social change which ordinary people notice in the process of connection between the elements of environment and complicated social interactions during the field study I ran in 2018 academically. These concepts are, 1-) City snares and 2-) Urban violence directed at besieged neighborhoods. This study tries to commentate and make sense out of the terms of city snares and urban violence directed at besieged neighborhoods in the historical process. Therefore, the standpoint which guides the study is Constructivism. The purpose of this study is to be descriptive, explorative and explanative of whether the terms of city snares and urban violence directed at besieged neighborhoods in the historical process have meaningful definitions or not. Hence, this study is a qualitative case study. Data gathering technique of the study is document analysis because there is analysis of the process. In the study, urbanization as conceptual work and the duration of urbanization as hypothetical framework are processed primarily. Subsequently, the terms of city snares and urban violence directed at besieged neighborhoods are analyzed with the context of literature. In the end of the study, it is understood that the hypotheses that build up the frame of the study about the terms of city snares and urban violence can make sense in the city literature. However, more theoretical and field studies are needed in this context
