Abstract

Contemporary urban concept asserts the need to create spaces for However, the idea of a man transformed radically from the moment of its appearance. The book by the famous Danish architect and consultant in urban design Jan Gehl, Cities for people, is a key example to demonstrate the ambiguity of this position. The book focuses on the concept of man, which was abandoned in modernism. And modernism is criticized by the author. But in reality, it is not about the return to the man, but about designing man. Gehl describes a new urban ideology, in which his understanding of man coincides with the postmodernist understanding of its absence. The man is multiple functions, actors of the city, and it refers to the bodies that are indistinguishable in their anonymity.
