This research discusses public space in Denpasar, Bali, focusing on Lapangan Puputan. Theoretically, public space has three functions, namely recreational, social interaction and political aspect. Using Habermas's theory on public space, this article found Lapangan Puputan fulfils three functions of public space. Yet, there is a lack of society's understanding on the function of public space, in which the space is functioned more for economic activity. They also refuse if Lapangan Puputan is used for political activity.

Abstract The article explores changes in public self-awareness resulting from the reduction of social interaction in physical presence during the Covid-19 pandemic. Following the three dimensions of shared public space, social interaction in direct encounter, and shared meaning, the text argues that dwindling opportunities to experience social cohesion may become paradigmatic for more fundamental deficiencies in societal interaction. Seen in this light, church services in physical presence can help to maintain a sense for public life in physical presence, unmediated by digital tools.

Abstract The rise of coffee consumption and steady expansion of coffee houses all over Europe in the last decades of the 17th century is often connected to the emergence of a public space, new modes of communication and social interaction, and eventually seen as a catalyst for the early Enlightenment. Yet those new places and drinking habits also had a disrupting effect on accepted norms of sociability and raised questions about potential health risks. Those debates are particularly well reflected in Leipzig publications between 1690 and 1730. This article takes three cantatas on coffee by Johann Gottfried Krause, Daniel Stoppe, and Christian Friedrich Henrici as a point of departure to investigate the emergence of this new genre in Leipzig and bear upon its social, literary, and musical implications.

The term ‘cocktail party effect’ derives from acoustics and refers to the possibility to distinguish the voice of a particular speaker amid the noisy confusion produced by a plethora of overlapping voices and conversations. In this article I propose a conceptual elaboration of the term by considering the acoustic phenomenon in question, both literally and metaphorically, as one of the most characteristic conditions shaping contemporary collective and acoustic experience in environments overloaded with information. In the first part, I discuss the conditionsthat give rise to the cocktail party acoustic phenomenon, as they relate to particular types of social, communicative and listening practices. In the second part, I present a case study of the phenomenon based on the creation of a soundscape composition developed in conjunction with a written text, both occasioned by the political activity in the public space of the Syntagma Square in Athens during the summer of 2011.

Christian love has historically been subject of extensive theological study but has rarely been studied within anthropology. Contemporary Coptic society receives growing attention over the last two decades as a minority in Egyptian Muslim majority society. An important bulk of this scholarship involves a discussion of the community’s sometimes self-defined and sometimes ascribed characterization as a persecuted minority. Particular attention has gone to how social and political dimensions of minority life lead tochanges in Christian theological understandings This paper builds on these insights and examines how Christian love is experienced, and shapes feelings of belonging, everyday morality and political sensibilities vis-à-vis Muslim majority society. It draws from ethnographic observations and meetings with Copts living in Egypt between 2014–2017. It focuses on three personal narratives that reveal the complex ways in which a theology of love affects social and political stances. An anthropological focus reveals the fluid boundaries between secular and religious expressions of Christian love. Love for God and for humans are seen as partaking in one divine love. Practicing this love, however, shapes very different responses and can lead to what has been described as Coptic ‘passive victim behaviour’, but also to political activity against the status-quo.

That politics and economic life have much to do with each other is a remark matched in self-evidence only by the parallel observation that political science and economics are of mutual interest. All the more striking then is the difficulty one meets in attempting to state with precision how politics and economic life, or how political science and economics are related.Consider for example the view that politics is the ceaseless competition of interested groups. Except under very rare conditions, as for instance the absence of division of labor, economic circumstances will preoccupy the waking hours of most men at most times. Their preoccupations will express themselves in the formation of organizations, or at least interested groups, with economic foundations. Politics, so far as “interest” means “economic interest” (which it does largely, but not exclusively), is the mutual adjustment of economic positions; and to that extent, the relation between politics and economic life seems to be that political activity grows out of economic activity. But the competition of the interests is, after all, an organized affair, carried out in accordance with rules called laws and constitutions. So perhaps the legal framework, the construction of which surely deserves to be called political, supervenes over the clashing of mere interests and even prescribes which interests may present themselves at the contest. Thus politics appears to be primary in its own right.

Public space directs how we live and act, how we socialize and even protest. If there is no community and solidarity there is no city, no civilization; there can only be a »city-state« as the modern version of an empire, says Murat Germen, photographer known for his critical view on the home-town of Istanbul. Muta-morphosis, probably one of his most famous series, uses digital manipulation to show a dark vision of future cities: buildings cramed together as in a strange and dangerous mutation process, almost melting as objects in Dali’s paintings. Through his artworks, text and lectures, Murat Germen criticizes excessive urbanization, motivated by capital and not by human needs. He also documented Gezi Park protests, in which the political aspect of managing the city became very apparent. His photos can be understood as a visual protest and Murat Germen thinks some of them may turn into visual evidence of the urban crime committed by the present Turkish government since 2002, when it came to power. Keywords: art, art and social power, gentrification, urbanism, visual protest

<p>Government owned housing in New Zealand is moving towards a model of privatisation. This can limit the opportunities found in the semi-public space for neighbours to meet and interact. Without these human interactions, a housing complex loses that which makes it a community. By restructuring the site to facilitate social interaction, this thesis aims to focus the space between buildings towards communal living, through an exploration of the public private interface in council housing complex, Arlington Apartments, in Wellington, New Zealand. This project will develop the balance in which residents can share space with their neighbours, by re-zoning current ambiguous space to be communal to a smaller group, in order to give tenants an opportunity to appropriate their living environment.</p>

Public space has an important role to incresase physical health and social interaction of city communities. Karebosi field is public space which is in the development priority by Makasar city government. Karebosi field is the most ideal facility to represent the concept of an open public space in Makasar. After going through revitalization process, the government still continues to reform and refine Karebosi field functions. This research aims to find out the visitors’ perception towards the comfort of social interaction in Karebosi field, and what factors which are influence them as well. This research was conducted in 2018 at Karebosi field, Makasar. The method used in this research is mixed method (qualitative – quantitative). The technique of data collection is done by evidentiary method through data triangulation (observation, questionnaire, and interview). The result of this research can be concluded that the facility in Karebosi field is quite successful in attracting the visitors to do sport activities in public space, yet the level of success is still not optimal because it is still in the range of 60.89%, it is due to the facility development that have not been varied, the facilities are considered as not being able to stimulate the diversity of social interaction and increasing the number in public space. Designing, Karebosi field is not able to give impression and meaning for the people who do the activities in it. It is expected to be a reference for Makasar government in formulating the steps to increase the service quality and the functions of Krebosi field in the future.
