Abstract:

Place attachment is an emotional bond that connects people to places and contributes to social engagement and personal well-being. The concept of place attachment draws from two theoretical traditions: phenomenological (sense of place) and community psychology (community attachment), giving rise to different ways in which place attachment has been understood and to different methods of measurement. Original studies on place attachment were greatly influenced by the essentialist concept of place, in which an ideal relation between people and places was that of rootedness. Contemporary approaches, by contrast, take into account that modern places are not bounded entities with stable identities inhabited by traditional and homogeneous communities, but that they are open, socially diverse, and changing. This raises some questions concerning the complex relationships between mobility and social diversity, and place attachment, and it also affects the contents of measurement instruments. In my presentation, I will (1) show the evolution of the changing meaning of place and the way it affects the concept of place attachment; (2) show that place attachment can take different forms (traditional versus active), leading either to positive or to negative relations with mobility and attitudes towards diversity and change; (3) present measures that allow differentiation between different styles of place attachment; and (4) review survey results that show that certain essentialist meanings of place such as historical continuity are associated with active forms of place attachment and with positive attitudes towards change. Given the ongoing war in the neighboring Ukraine I will also address relevant data on place attachment as related to national identity, collected within the last 20 years in Ukraine.
