ABSTRACT

This chapter focuses on applying phenomenology to the urban milieu. It aligns the tool of phenomenology with the other tools. The senses are of the body and the body is traditionally conceived of as that which must be overcome in order to perceive the world as it actually exists. The body, subjected to brutal ideological, cultural, religious, political, and philosophical attacks throughout the history of the Western tradition, was thought to impair the mind or the spirit's view of the universe, being as the body was conceived of as the very nexus of lust. It would seem that geography and phenomenology would be natural allies, complements one to another, commutative twins, conjoined cheek to jowl. Through comprehending the workings of efficiency and functionality, understand that there needs to be differentiation between the districts of the city and between the respective tasks of the city's population.
