Urban Space Issues Under the Logic of Capital

Zhang Xuan

Abstract

Capital is a key element in the formation and development of urban space, and spatialization must obey the logic of capital. The theories of capital circulation, capital accumulation, and capital expansion are important tools for characterizing spatial perspectives and interpreting urban spatial issues. The logic of capital has an extremely important impact on the physical space, social space, and natural space of cities, causing many problems such as homogenization, hierarchy, and differentiation in urban space. Analyzing urban spatial issues requires connection with capital logic, and solving urban spatial problems requires clarifying the capital logic behind and moving towards spatial justice in the post urban era.
