Özet: The capitalist order functions as to eliminate the differences to  mold a single common archetype and it can easliy be determined that globalism is actually the myth of transcendental plane necessary for capitalism to reinvent itself. For the globalisation to actually take place, it would require capitalism to destroy itself, which would in turn mean inertia and therefore would not be possible within the functioning cycles of capitalism. This aforementioned paradox, is actually the lines of flight of the globalizing city. The proper intent of creating absolute spaces, the ever increasing similarities of the manufacturing processes and the end products, have given rise and importance to the notion of ‘identity’. The sullen quest for individuality inevitably entails the taxonomy of multitudes, an effort to decrease the ‘other’s and the habit of excluding the divergent. In contrast to what the mechanisms of control are aiming to impose, the global city doesn’t belong to a single entity. The differentiating and specializing organizations of the global cities create new spacial orders and layers for the inhabitants of the city. Capitalism, while recreating itself from the urban space, also simultaneously decomposes it. The segregated spaces are now each spaces of the others. Spaces which are existant on different definitions and have now come to being in a specific ‘moment’ where the individual exists actually through virtuality.
