This period is the postindustrialization period in which the urban was defined in the modern sense, the urban was owned by the urbanites, democratic local government and participation mechanisms emerged, and local identities were realized. However, due to the intense population movements that post-industrialization urbanies are exposed to due to their socio-economic and cultural opportunities, it has become increasingly difficult to maintain the identity of the urban and the urban population, and to keep the local population alive with their level of urban belonging and awareness. For this reason, residents of the urban should adopt urban-specific behaviors and find the opportunity to participate in local government mechanisms in order to develop a sense of urban belonging and a level of urban awareness in terms of urban rights.

In this context, 238 participants over the age of 18 were surveyed among the people who made up the target universe of the study and lived in the urban of Batman using the quantitative research method in the field research conducted. The surveys were conducted in the form of an applied field survey in 2020. In Batman, where most of the participants in the study spent their childhood or teenage years, it was found that they were urban conscious and aware of urban rights in the context of urban rights, but had problems exercising these rights due to insufficient participation opportunities caused by the dysfunction of local participation mechanisms.
