HABITAT AND CONTEMPORARY CITY: HERITAGE, TERRITORY AND INTERDISCIPLINE
Synopsis
In the realm of academic debate, the fundamental challenge in studying habitat and the city lies in the fact that the intentions, trends, and theories related to both concepts refer us to various disciplinary fields. Moreover, they are polysemic concepts, meaning they have multiple meanings, and therefore, they are difficult to define precisely and generally as scientific categories.
Regarding the concept of the built habitat, its approach shifts to problems of an anthropological, sociological, and cultural nature, including the discussion of physical and symbolic places. The concept of habitat is used by biologists and ecologists with one meaning, while architects, urban planners, and other related disciplines use it from an anthropocentric perspective.
