Description
Home explores the complex and multifaceted concept of home, examining its relationship with power, identity, and material geographies. This revised edition builds upon the first publication's critical geography of home, incorporating new research boxes, illustrations, and contemporary examples to enhance understanding.
The book considers the making and unmaking of home across various scales, including domestic, urban, national, and transnational contexts. It addresses key dimensions of home, such as digital connectivity, art and performance, and the intersections of power, identity, and material geographies.
With a focus on the interconnectedness of material and imaginative geographies of home, this book provides an understanding that is both nuanced and insightful, offering a research agenda for home in a world shaped by COVID-19.
