本文提出了一种新的方法，旨在引出维持社会空间中人与场所关系定位的机制。这个吗映射工具？通过设计是内在相关的，并涉及参与者创建他们的地理位置的视觉表示，包括他们对不同地点的感知和偏好。这是其次是一个采访的方法，其中参与者？跟谁说话地图制作？厚？详细叙述了将人与地联系在一起的纽带。该方法是作为一项为期3年的研究的一部分开发和使用的，该研究涉及1,000张地图的收集，以及20个不同地区的200多次采访。我们借鉴了使用本研究的方法的实证例子，包括中产阶级内部的分化过程和基于地点的城镇，城市和地方的身份。
A new method is proposed here aimed at eliciting the mechanisms which maintain the relational positioning of people and places within social space. This ?mapping tool? is inherently relational by design and involves participants creating visual representations of their geographic imaginaries, encompassing their perceptions and preferences of different localities. This is followed by an interviewing approach wherein participants ?speak to? their map, producing ?thick? narratives detailing the ties that bind people and places. The method was developed and used as part of a 3-year study into the geographic imaginaries of young people in the UK, involving the collection of 1,000 maps, together with over 200 interviews, across 20 diverse localities. We draw on empirical examples of using the method from this study, including processes of differentiation within the middle classes and the place-based identities of towns, cities and localities.
