  Introduction & Objective: Urban space production is a complex concept that has been studied by different thinkers from different angles. Power is one of the main factors influencing the production of urban spaces. This research seeks to determine the criteria and indicators and provide a method for measuring the power of actors    in the production of urban spaces.Research Method: The present study is fundamental according to the purpose of the research and descriptive-exploratory according to the research question. Documentary and semi-structured interviews were used to collect data. Sampling was performed using snowball method to reach the subject experts. Analytic Network Process (ANP) and SuperDecision software were used to analyze the data.Statistical population: In this research, a community of urban planning experts and officials and executive experts in the public, semi-public and private sectors (including 30 people) has been conducted.Findings: Criteria and indicators for measuring the power of urban space production actors have been identified and by analyzing the network, the weight of each has been obtained and a method for measuring the power of actors in the form of a scoring table has been developed.Conclusion: This study was conducted in order to develop the methodology of power relations analysis of urban space production actors. According to the obtained results, the criterion of “access to power resources”, has the highest weight among the criteria of power of actors, and the criteria of “influence in space” and the “degree of participation and presence in space” are in the next category of importance.  Manuscript profile
