摘要

根據世界衛生組織的統計，到二十一世紀時全世界人口約有近百分之七十五人口居住在都市：都市生活將是未來大部分人類共同的經驗。都市是一個因人民基於生活需求而形成變革的有機組織，既然如此，市民對自己所生活的都市應有參與的權利和義務。面對都市這一個複雜有機組織的運作，市民（或指都市的主要使用者）的參與有助於釐清都市生活的方向和充實都市生活的發展內含。本論文所探討的重點是市民性的都市生活，讓市民透過不同參與管道在都市生活的經營管理中發揮市民的功能。「市民性都市生活」強調正視市民多元分殊性，透過市民參與的方式增進彼此瞭解、建立政策共識、防止都市發展弊端、和擴大可共同分享的利益。本文探討的重點包括「市民性都市生活的意義和市民參與」、「健康的都市和市民參與」、和「市民參與的理念及作法」。
