Abstract
New Urbanism is the important planning movement in this century, and is about creating a better future for us all. It is an international movement to reform the design of the built environment, and is about raising our quality of life and standard of living by creating better places to live. New Urbanism is the revival of our lost art of place-making, and is essentially a re-ordering of the built environment into the form of complete cities, towns, villages, and neighborhoods-the way communities have been built for centuries around the world.

The principles of New Urbanism can be applied increasingly to projects at the full range of

Abstract
In the recent decades, there have happened many spatial resistances in response to the privatization, Islamization, securitization and increasing control over public urban spaces in Tehran city context. These mostly have been the outcome of agency of marginalized groups in the space production process. Spatial representation of these spatial resistances has been in such a way that could challenge the dominated spatial order in a temporal and unstable way, and the changing in spatial organization of the city has linked into these conflicts. This research seeks knowing the dominated relations upon these spaces and explaining them theoretically through concept of emergent spaces. At the first, in an experiential manner, spatial distribution of

Abstract
ConclusionHeideggerchr ('39') s existential space and the production of Lefebvre space are each in a way that focus on human beings in their discussions and historical view of space, in addition to having appropriate philosophical support, by combining these two theories and modifying it, space can be considered an abstract-concrete phenomenon which is manifested as a constructed place (according to the proposal of the present study, representation spaces). This existential concept of space in the present study, which is only inspired by Heidegger and Lefebvre theories and not entirely based on them, is able to explain the understanding of the concept of space and place in a wide range (for example, from cyberspace) of procedural unity and

Abstract
In the past few decades, the concept of “right to the city” has spread from Europe to other parts of the world, but this concept is still neglected in Iran. This study seeks to examine the situation of nine metropolises in Iran in terms of the realization of the right to the city. A combination of methods is used. GIS software was used as a tool to leveling the metropolises. LISREL was used to analyze the effects of criteria and indicators and the TOPSIS technique was used to rank metropolises. According to the analysis obtained by GIS, the criteria and indicators of the right to the city are not in a good condition in any of the metropolises of Iran. But the output of the LISREL model shows that criteria such as service, political, eco
