Description Locational meanings are shared representations of respective urban spaces. These representations enable social interaction and determine its boundaries. Locational meanings are formed and altered by a process of negotiation between the users of the given space who, through their activity, constantly change the definitions of the space itself. The present study constitutes an attempt to apply this theoretical model to two kinds of city space. Public space, being the open and universally accessible space, as represented by streets, city squares and parks, and secondly, privatized city space, which, in many scholars’ view has become exemplified by the shopping mall. These two kinds of places are compared with respect to the rules of interaction and expectation from it, standards of normality and the negotiation process.
