“Просторова оптика” урбанізму в українському контексті

The article is dedicated to the actualization of the interdisciplinary spatial perspective as a study of the experience of living-experiencing in the horizon of human history. Despite the fact that increasing attention to the problem of urban space in XX-XXI centuries is caused by intensive industrial and post-industrial urbanization, it's being considered that the city itself has always been the embodiment of social specialization. Now we observe not the formation of a new spatial subject of study, but the "spatialization" of the research perspective. The main trend of modern spatial theory is not just urbanism but its human dimension in sensory fragmentation. According to this, it is assumed that planning and studying of urban space abandon Modern unifying and rational representations of space and re-actualize the rejected sensorial spaces of representation. And although such postmodernization de-differentiation is not neoconservative, in the Ukrainian discourse, these searches for non-repressive solutions are often limited by "rethinking", re-actualization of pre-modern issues – the question of symbols, images, archetypes – or absolutizing of aesthetic-subjectivist perspective. Although both of these options are reductionist for the study of space – they actualize spatial themes, but not optics – it is a good illustration of the outlined research trend that indicates the prospects for further development of spatial theory in Ukrainian science.
