Abstract
Urban riots are violent, sudden, and economically willing-based protests that are usually based on occupying urban spaces as the main context of demonstrations. The urban spatial spaces including the consumption spaces, the power spaces, and the network spaces are both instruments and goals of urban riots. Current research tried to analyze the spatial aspects of the greatest urban rebellions that have occurred in post-Islamic revolutionary Iran and it was done in 2024. The research data is the secondary historical documents and the research method is the Boolean technique. The results of the Boolean matrix indicate that when the cause of grievance is struggling for urban settlements and the logic of protest activism is vandalism solely, the domain of urban uprising will be local. if dissatisfaction ignoring their cause, is exaggerated through the network interaction spaces and the Carnivalian activism is widespread in addition to vandalistic actions, the domain of urban riot will be expanded at the national level.
