Abstract

The article deals with the works of the French philosopher and sociologist Henri Lefebvre, devoted to urban problems. The evolution of the ideological and theoretical foundations of Lefebvre’s approach to understanding the features of urban development and its key characteristics is presented. The presentation of A. Lefevre on the nature of the city is disclosed, the concept of the crisis of the modern city and the factors that determine it are analyzed. The main attention is paid to the concept of “the right to the city”, which D. Harvey continues to develop in modern urban studies. The prerequisites of the urban revolution and its desired results are analyzed.
