1999年,一系列的洪水和降雨事件淹没了北卡罗来纳州的普林斯维尔。这个历史悠久的社区是美国第一个由非裔美国人建立的城镇,选择留在原地而不是搬迁。本文介绍了搬迁的历史背景下的决定,地方依恋和社区连接。访谈、观察和文献资料揭示了导致决定留在原地的主题。讨论部分将决定是否放置附件联系起来,并建议未来的研究应该超越个人层面的分析。包括政策和实践建议。特别是,居民对社区的依恋程度以及他们就当地环境进行谈判的方式,必须与搬迁补偿等缓解措施联系起来。2005年卡特里娜飓风过后,新奥尔良地区就围绕着一个在很多方面与普林斯维尔相似的地点的未来展开了讨论,特别是下九区。文章最后对这种话语进行了审查,并更新了普林斯维尔和新奥尔良的重建进展。
In 1999, a series of flood and rain events inundated Princeville, North Carolina. This historic community, the first town in the United States founded by African Americans, chose to stay in place rather than to relocate. This article presents the relocation decision within the contexts of history, place attachment, and community connections. Interview, observation, and documentary data reveal themes that led to the decision to remain in place. A Discussion section ties the decision to place attachments and recommends that future research should move beyond the individual level of analysis. Recommendations for policy and practice are included. In particular, how residents are attached to their communities and the ways in which they negotiate the environment relative to that place must be linked to mitigation efforts such as relocation buyouts. Immediately after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, discourse surrounded areas in New Orleans regarding the future of a location similar in many ways to Princeville, particularly, the Lower Ninth Ward. The article concludes with an examination of that discourse and updates reconstruction progress in both Princeville and New Orleans.
