Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, is known for its bustling street
life. Public spaces, such as streets and sidewalks, are
appropriated by citizens mostly for small-scale economic
activities. Green parks are privatized in order to cater to the
growing demand for leisure space. At the same time, official spaces
like Ba Dinh Square or Ly Thai To Square are occupied by Hanoi's
residents for sports and gatherings. This dissertation takes a
close look at the practices and the meaning of public spaces and
the development of public spheres in Hanoi. Dissertation. (Series:
