Recent years have witnessed a resurgent interest in the study of home and place across the social sciences. By breaking away from positivistic grand theories, researchers have developed a heightened sense of the manifold ways people attach themselves to place, inscribe it with meaning and construct it through discursive acts of imagination. This themed issue sets out to explore a “middle ground” perspective on home and place, in which a constructionist approach is combined with a political economic approach, which also locates home within the wider spheres of power relations and class conflicts. Shedding a harsh light on a soft topic, a relational perspective on home and place is formulated in which the subjective and culturalist notion of home and housing is located within wider social and political-economic structures. The issue thereby focuses on the theme of the disruption of home, dealing with places where and times when home sentiments are displaced or disarranged as a consequence of extra-local or external forces. |
