Back to the Order

The book asks what it means to manage the urban chaos in cities of hardship. Individual or group displacements (internally displaced person) are no only made up of people from the rural areas but also from inside the cities themselves; these are who live in informal human settlements, traditional sectors that are underdeveloped economically and technically, and the marginalised undeveloped areas. All this transformation and contradiction in urban characteristics may be leads to urban chaos. Furthermore, this chaos may also be aa a result of shortcomings in the practice of architects, their education, or the application of city legislation. This book believes that most of the focus of the concept of the public realm was placed on moving away from the control of the regulations, both at the levels of home and work. Despite the fact that the third places can provide the broad area of the abandoned such control, but "Back to the Order" believes it should be that this abandoned, surrounded by frescoes responsibility to respect the rights of others.
