A THEORETICAL PERSPECTIVE OF DESIGNING FOR SAFE URBAN PUBLIC PLACE: LEARNINGS FROM THE SOCIAL AND URBAN THEORISTS
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Research in Engineering and Technology - Year 2019, Vol 10, Issue 2
Abstract
Since the history of evolution of cities, civilizations have developed means to make their settlements advanced in terms of efficiency, comfort and to foster safety. Thus safety within cities, is an important factor that forms an integral part of city design. This “safety” is not related to engineered design only but connected to human behavior that forms a very important attribute in livable environments. The paper is based on a robust literature review that aim to investigate into the field of Urban Safety. It deals with several theories that are inter-connected and relate to this concept. The concept of safety in urban context is a very complicated construct and involves a large number of variables, thus is order to fine –tune this concept, a systematic scanning of several related fields of theories are undertaken. They are classified , categorized and further filtered into segments from which a large number of study parameters are identified that can contribute to the factor of urban safety in public areas. These parameters further could be used in further research to generate safety audit tool
