Abstract
CRISTIA, Felix Alejandro. Revealing Political Space. Types of Appropriation of Public Space as Active Politics. Eidos [online]. 2024, n.42, pp.13-41. Epub June 28, 2024. ISSN 1692-8857. https://doi.org/10.14482/eidos.42.009.864.
This research addresses the validity of public space as a promoter of political participation, focusing on the various forms of appropriation of space that can foster said participation. The main objective is to demonstrate the possibilities of political action of citizens by expressing their disagreement through different processes of appropriation of public space: appropriation by domination, appropriation by rebellion, vandalic, and artistic appropriation. It will be argued that the legitimacy of a government system can be questioned or weakened depending on the public actions of the citizen body against the State or the entity that exercises sovereignty over space. The analysis will be carried out from the political philosophy of the dissociative aspect and political realism, through the concepts of conflict, sovereignty, and disagreement.
Keywords : Appropriation of space; sovereignty; political philosophy; State; public space.
