From a lefebvrian quotation, this work reflects about the dimensions of the right to the city forged between the processes of dispossession and the processes of appropriation. Thus, the right to the city is not reduced by a state law formal expression, otherwise, it is comprehended as a process of commoning guided by use. In the first three chapters, politics, state and law's concepts are discussed as dispositifs associated in a biopolitical regime of exception's governmentality that alienates us and blocks the human emancipation. But, on the other hand, there is a life that insists to live and, by the living work, produces relationships and affections, as well as it produces community ties and an autonomous form-of-life. In addition, chapters four, five and six deepen the debate on spatial dimension. First, they define space, city and urban as central categories to social production. Afterwards, public and private are shown dominated by state and individual logics that are conforming our subjectivity and spaciality. Private property right, subsequently, consolidates a limited sociability form, as a alienated form. Finally, dispossession spatializes the exception regime on the contemporary city as a way to forced extraction of plus value needed by capitalist accumulation. In opposition to this alienation regime, appropriation opens for subjects a possibility, by use, re-encounter yourselves, as well as re-encounter with produced objects and with different others. In this sense, some contemporary evidences are pointed as a conclusion that affirms: from dominated spaces by alienated practices, we can find elements to commoning, a spatial practice oriented by and for non-alienated use of the city.
