SALAS TORRES, Giovanny Antonio. Major aspects of urban space and citizen security and safety seen from a Bogota perspective. Rev. Crim. [online]. 2015, vol.57, n.2, pp.301-317. ISSN 1794-3108.

Some of the main features of urban space are conceptualized here from a theoretical outlook in order to explain their relationship with the citizen security and safety, with the "ACD", the critical discourse analysis as a methodological reference and the objective of providing a contribution for future research in this line. The problems faced in big cities such as segregation, fragmentation and population density are specified by means of a chart of Bogota (2011-2013) and within the framework of the Integral Coexistence and Citizen Security Plan (ICCSP, 2013-2023). In this work it is concluded that there is a need not only to analyze the meaning of physical space in the city vis-à vis public safety and security, but also to formulate public policies from this insight in order to strengthen social interaction and recover urban space in its whole political dimension.
