Fear of the Unknown in Urban Atmospheres

Résumé

In today’s world of insecurity, we are feeling less and less secure in our urban environments. In recent years, there has been much focus on reducing crime rates and crime prevention. However, there are times when we feel unsafe in a place where there is no real threat. This will directly affect our cities and their atmospheres as one avoids places of insecurity. In this paper, by reviewing the existing literature on actual safety and perceived safety, the perception of atmosphere, fear and fear of the unknown, we aim to suggest that it is fear of the unknown and the lack of sensory information as the mediums of atmospheres that can lead to the emotion of fear in an otherwise safe seeming place.
