The Right to the City (David Harvey)

"The Right to the City" by David Harvey is a concept advocating that all urban residents should have a say in how their city develops and benefits from urban resources. It challenges the idea that cities are primarily driven by profit, emphasizing instead that people should have equitable access to housing, public spaces, and services. Harvey argues that urban space should serve the needs of communities rather than just economic interests, promoting social justice, inclusivity, and collective control over urban development to create more equitable and livable cities.
