Summary/Abstract: Globalization is changing cities in our day and affecting more effectively local lives. While the cities are becoming standard, the life styles of the people resemble each other and differences disappear. Space-specific differences and features in the global system are less obvious; life is faster. While fast eating and drinking habits that change with this change harm human health, the places become somewhere without id. In response to the negative impact of globalization on human life, social movements emerged by some local groups to advocate new forms of life such as slow food and cittaslow. This study foresees to think about the negative effect of globalization on life patterns of the cities and aims to evaluate the affect of slow food and cittaslow movements to urban and individual life styles.
