 __________________\n\nAbstract\n\nToday’s talk offers a glance into the 
 second case study from my dissertation on Urban Spaces of Christianity. Ba
 sed on the sociological assumption of the social production of space\, I r
 econstruct the way Christianity produces urban space and how Christian spa
 ces are shaped by the city. In this regard\, the (contested) religious sem
 anticization and actualization of space as well as the occupance of space\
 , the collision and the overlapping of spaces in one place are concerned. 
 Based on Lefebvre’s theory of the three-part production of space (Lefebv
 re\, 2015) and his definition of urbanity by centrality as it’s social f
 orm (Lefebvre\, 2016) the case studies are analyzed by sequence analysis f
 rom the methodological vantage point of objective hermeneutics with refere
 nce to Oevermann’s foundations.\n\nIn last year’s colloquium\, I talke
 d about The Pope’s homily on the ethics of urbanity and Jesuanic socio-s
 patial practices as the model of a Christian city topology: The homily und
 erlined two fundamental orders of the case structure of urban Christian sp
 ace production. First\, the basic Christian motive of meaning making\, the
  reversal of values\, also reverses the secular order of centrality and pe
 riphery by establishing a model of Christian centrality. Second\, the mode
 l operates with a dynamic of spacing and de-spacing of religion.\n\nToday\
 , I will talk about three cases from Stuttgart\, Hamburg and Chicago to en
 compass the delimiting background\, which is (implicitly) used to define t
 he urbanity of urban Christian spaces. Urbanity gains its meaning through 
 the demarcation from a historically changing counter-position (Sonne\, 201
 7) and urban religion historically arose through a process of interchange 
 with "non-urban practices and ideas\," with city and country standing "in 
 continuity as well as competition\, as attraction or as antithesis" (Rüpk
 e\, 2019).
