Beschreibung
This book rekindles the well-known connection between people and place in the context of a global pandemic. The chapters are divided into two sections. In the first section, “Place Attachment During a Pandemic,” we review the nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and the extent of its impact on place attachment and human-environment interactions. We examine how restrictions in mobility and environmental changes can have a significant psychological burden on people who are dealing with the effect of place attachment disruption that arises during a pandemic. In the second section, “Adjusting to Place Attachment Disruption During and After a Pandemic,” we focus on adaptive processes and responses that could enable people to adjust positively to place attachment disruption. We conclude the book by discussing the potential for pro-environmental behavior to promote place attachment and flourishing in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic by introducing an integrative framework ofplace flourishing and exploring its implications for theory, research, policy, and practice.
Examines the implications of place attachment disruptions during the COVID-19 pandemic Considers the value of both old and new people-place relationships in contributing to a post-pandemic recovery plan Proposes an integrative framework that can be adopted by researchers, healthcare practitioners, and policy makers to promote pro-environmental behavior, place attachment, and post-pandemic flourishing Explores implications for theory, research, policy, and practice A psychological approach to place in the context of a global pandemic

ENDORSEMENT NOTES FOR
PLACE AND POST-PANDEMIC FLOURISHING
“This is a scientific challenge: a solid psychological theory, attachment system, is adopted to understand a new phenomenon, namely the disruption of people-place relations during the 2020-2021 COVID-19 pandemic. The book deploys its heuristic validity by bridging health, environmental, and positive psychology in order to orient local and national relevant post-pandemic policy-making, on how to cope with present-day place attachment disruption in order to enter the next recovering phase towards the place flourishing target.”

"The pandemic has made clear that we need a deeper consideration of, and investment, in place and in community well-being. Reflection and dialogue on this critical topic are needed, and this volume helpfully moves that discussion forward."

“This book, Place and post-pandemic flourishing, is a delightful surprise. Its authors are esteemed, and the scholarship is first-rate. That is not surprising at all. But the book is so readable! I resonated with the idea that we can be attached emotionally and psychologically to places--like our homes, schools, workplaces, and places of worship--and the COVID-19 pandemic has strained or ruptured many of those bonds of attachment. Those ideas opened new ways of thinking about how we can personally and as communities, societies, and a world respond to promote adjustment and fortify resilience. This will provide many new stimulating ideas that are applicable to your life and work.”
