Metropolises can be considered as big places. Little by little, all the big cities are becoming impossible. Impossible is a meaning, but a meaning that the symbolic direction and the pole of the show do not lead us in any direction. His Qibla is his own. The metropolis represents the "universe". A place is a place that has an identity but is impossibly devoid of identity and historical-cultural representation. Isfahan is a place, but London is a world city and impossible. According to Ms. Saskia Sassen, a famous urbanist, a global city is different from a metropolis. Many cities can be global, but they are not cosmopolitan. Jahanshahr refers to cities that are the center of gravity of global exchanges and transactions, such as London, Paris, Tokyo, and New York. But a global city is a city that, although there are many immigrants and ethnicities and many communication networks have been formed, they are not the center of gravity of the world, although they have become global. In Iran, it can be said that Mashhad and Tehran are global cities, but they are not global cities. These global cities, where airports, highways, supermarkets, megamalls, and organizations without a global identity are formed, are slowly becoming impossible. Namkans are places where a certain form of social relations occurs. The impossible is not meaningless, but they are without identity; It means that you can't see much local matter and local identity there.
Metropolis is the form that cities are experiencing in our society in recent decades. This form is in all cities, even in medium or small cities. Within every city, there are metropolises, and within all metropolises, there are also cities. Metropolises are impossible locations within cities. Cities with a population of more than one million people are more conducive to the spread of impossibility and impossibilities. Hence, these cities are called metropolis. What makes the situation of metropolises problematic is the impossibility and expansion of impossibility in the soul of the city. My attempt in this book is to provide analytical narratives of this problem of the city and metropolis.
