Following on from the ground-breaking first edition, which received the 2014 EDRA Achievement Award, this fully updated text includes new chapters on current issues in the built environment, such as GIS and mapping, climate change, and qualitative approaches.

Place attachments are powerful emotional bonds that form between people and their physical surroundings. They inform our sense of identity, create meaning in our lives, facilitate community, and influence action. Place attachments have bearing on such diverse issues as rootedness and belonging, placemaking and displacement, mobility and migration, intergroup conflict, civic engagement, social housing and urban redevelopment, natural resource management, and global climate change.

In this multidisciplinary book, Manzo and Devine-Wright draw together the latest thinking by leading scholars from around the globe, including contributions from scholars such as Daniel Williams, Mindy Fullilove, Randy Hester, and David Seamon, to capture significant advancements in three main areas: theory, methods, and applications. Over the course of fifteen chapters, using a wide range of conceptual and applied methods, the authors critically review and challenge contemporary knowledge, identify significant advances, and point to areas for future research.

This important volume offers the most current understandings about place attachment, a critical concept for the environmental social sciences and placemaking professions.

Reviews for Place Attachment: Advances in Theory, Methods and Applications

"""This book provides a state-of-the-art overview of place attachment theory, methods, and applications. It is must read for anyone wanting to gain a transdisciplinary understanding of people’s emotional bonds with particular places, and how those are shifting in response to contemporary patterns of climate change, disease pandemics, rapid urbanization, and enforced migration."" - Daniel Stokols, Chancellor’s Professor Emeritus, School of Social Ecology, University of California, Irvine, USA, and author of Social Ecology in the Digital Age. ""Place attachment describes the emotional bonds that people form toward physical environments. As in the first edition, the book includes 15 chapters written by many of the same researchers and/or practitioners. It is the diverse set of 32 authors who specialize in environmental, social, and community psychology, geography, medicine, sociology, environmental studies, and architecture that provides the book with an excellent range of perspectives on traditional and modern conceptualizations of place attachment and its continued utility in social science … the second installment of the book ‘Place Attachment: Advances in Theory, Methods, and Applications’ is timely as built and natural environments around the world undergo substantial alteration because of continued climate change and the COVID- 19 pandemic. This book makes it clear that the mechanisms through which people bond to place, and how those bonds can be reliably examined, interpreted, and utilized are highly relevant to the discipline of psychology and beyond."" – Lindsay J. McCunn, Vancouver Island University, Nanaimo, Canada"
