The Functioning of Having a Sense of Place: Cities and Immigrants* (Article)

de Shalit A.*

Abstract

When immigrants arrive to their city of destination, both the immigrants and the veterans are at a risk of losing their sense of place, which is an important functioning. Can this functioning be secured in the context of immigration? I argue that it can, as indeed Amsterdam and Thessaloniki, the two cities studied here, do rather successfully. © 2019, © 2019 Human Development and Capability Association.
