The Functioning of Having a Sense of Place: Cities and Immigrants

Avner de Shalit

Journal of Human Development and Capabilities, 2019, vol. 20, issue 3, 267-279

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.
