Definition of Concept “City”: Multidisciplinary Approach
The present article deals with the problem of diversity of definitions, interpretations and approaches to the notion of the term “city” in urban planning, economics, sociology, linguistics, philosophy, etc. The concept “city” is clarified for a holistic consideration of the term in related sciences, as the “city” is inherently multifaceted. Comparative analysis of definitions and classifications of the concept “city” as a multifaceted phenomenon that gives prospects for the development of the city and urban planning in general is given. The classification of Ukrainian cities and features of different approaches to the definition applied in urbanistics are investigated in the scientific paper. The most common criteria of “city” definition such as administrative/legal aspects; economic links; customary/historical background are given. The existence of an “urban center” as a spatial concept based on a matrix of high population density cells and the stages of affiliation of a settlement to a city that takes place in several stages are determined.
