Abstract

The article presents a study which determines the role of the choices made by the middle classes on their urban distinction in Turkey. It notes that the formation of social groups, along with the economic capital, leads to the formation of urban space as manifested by the active formation of middle class lifestyles which have direct interactions in urban space. Relatively, the way in which urban space is used in everyday life is considered as an accumulation of their everyday life choices.
