MANSUR GARDA, Juan Carlos. Dwelling the City. Rev. filos.open insight [online]. 2017, vol.8, n.14, pp.9-24. ISSN 2395-8936.

This text seeks to clarify the notion of dwelling, in order to understand what to inhabit the city is and means. Throughout this article it is noticed that beyond occupying a space, to dwell is to live it in a creative, symbolic and free manner, and points out as fundamental elements of living the «care», the «protection», the «rooting» and the «meeting». These elements allow us to understand that dwelling is an ethos and cities are the manifestation of our way of expressing our desires and interests for ourselves, for others and for the things that surround us, and because of this, the city is inhabited when we make citizenship, and embody our socio-political and economic relations, which are reflected in the architectural and urban forms of cities.

Palabras llave : care; city; dwelling; protection; rooting.
