description This article is a theoretical reflection on the motivations of citizens to act creatively and collectively on their living spaces, on the assumption of a deficiency in the planning of the city to consider the sensitive experiences of the inhabitants. Thus the lack of real integration of the inhabitant to the process of city production, some negative experiences of urban life, or the discontent linked to the invisibility of some problems, could easily motivate a spontaneous creation of a public space of resistance. The peculiarity of this type of urban movements is the plurality and diversity of subjective experiences that arise from urban life. The ways of resistance used are not always intentional strategies, sometimes they are spontaneous acts of resistance and unintentional, creative acts that change established orders. However, the creative acts more intentional as self-management or self-construction also act as alternative forms of resistance to divert the dominant orders of the urban action.
