  • More about Habitus: A Sense of Place

Habitus is a concept developed by Pierre Bourdieu that relates to our perceptions of space and place and how these perceptions affect our actions. This book brings together leading scholars from interdisciplinary fields to examine ways in which spaces and places are constructed, read, and used by different people. It is divided into sections guided by three questions: How does the notion of Habitus help us understand international and national political structures and activities? Does Habitus help explain processes of place-making in relation to practices of the built environment? How durable is Habitus: might it undergo transformation in changing circumstances?

Habitus, a concept introduced by the late French philosopher Pierre Bourdieu, is a sense of one's place and the others' place, influencing our perceptions of space and place and shaping our actions. It suggests a web of complex processes that connect the physical, social, and mental aspects of our environment. This book brings together leading scholars from interdisciplinary fields to explore how spaces and places are constructed, read, and used by different people. It is divided into sections that address the following questions: How does the notion of Habitus help us understand international and national political structures and activities? Does Habitus help explain processes of place-making in relation to practices of the built environment? How durable is Habitus: might it undergo transformation in changing circumstances? This book is a tribute to Pierre Bourdieu's remarkable contribution to the field.
