Why do conflicts often arise when naming authorities and other interests propose changing long-standing placenames? This project will address this question by researching opposition to specific proposals to change placenames - in particular the renaming of Hazelwood North with Churchill and resistance to the renaming of places in and around the Grampians National Park in the early 1990s. A community will be selected to document place identity and contrast these mental maps with official registers of placenames. The outcome will provide naming authorities with a greater knowledge of community attitudes to placenames and greater understanding of resistance to renaming proposals. The study will provide a detailed understanding of placename attachment, identity, and resistance to interference into sense of place.

为什么命名当局和其他利益集团提议改变长期存在的地名时经常发生冲突？ 该项目将通过研究反对改变地名的具体建议来解决这个问题，特别是用丘吉尔重新命名哈泽尔伍德北部，以及在1990年代初反对重新命名格兰扁国家公园内和周围的地方。 将选择一个社区来记录地方身份，并将这些心理地图与官方地名登记簿进行对比。 结果将使命名当局更好地了解社区对地名的态度，并更好地了解对重新命名建议的抵制。 这项研究将提供一个详细的了解胎盘附着，身份，并抵抗干扰到地方感。
