Abstract
In Lefebvre's view (1968), the right to the city is not defined as a legal demand of citizens, but as a lifestyle that is based on lived experience, active participation in shaping the city, and the use of urban space. Social security, as one of the important indicators affecting the right to the city, plays a key role in ensuring the lifestyle of citizens. It seems that social security, by providing a suitable platform for social interactions and urban participation, plays an important role in realizing the right to the city as a lifestyle, a topic that has been examined in this study.
Research method: Survey with questionnaire tool and statistical population including all citizens over 20 years of age living in the city of Maku, 33,328 people, of which 500 people were selected according to the Cochran sample size determination formula with variance obtained from a pre-test of 50 respondents and using multi-stage cluster sampling method.
Based on the results obtained, the statistical relationship between social security indicators and the right to the city was confirmed. In the regression test, the life security index with an impact coefficient of 0.32, psychological security of 0.28, and financial security of 0.24 affected the variable of perception of the right to the city. In the final analysis, paying attention to social security infrastructure among citizens can lead to increased participation and urban belonging, expanding the perception of the right to the city, and improving the lifestyle among citizens.
