We discussed the new sociological concept, the public embedded in ordinary daily life,and make sure that this concept is useful for the empirical studies on urban environmentand urban space. We actually study many case of urban space in Japan, China, Italy and Germany.The concept , the public embedded in ordinary daily life is not only the key term for empirical international comparative studies, but also critical key co ncept that play important role in the reconstruction process of sociological theory.
