Deciding Where to Live (eBook, PDF)

An Interdisciplinary Approach to Residential Choice in its Social Context
Redaktion: Frankhauser, Pierre; Ansel, Dominique

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book proposes, from a cross-disciplinary perspective, an original reading of current work on residential choice and the decisions associated with it. Geographers, social-psychologists, economists, sociologists, neurologists and linguists have worked together in the context of collective research into evaluation, choice and decision-making in the use of urban and periurban spaces. A synthetic outlook has been constructed from these complimentary scientific references. The book, which is designed as a handbook, also provides the opportunity to set out the different approaches to deal with the models which have been developed in this field.
