在对国内外地方感的各种概念辨析梳理的基础上,结合中国本土文化特点及实例研究对地方感给予了重新解读,提出“消极地方感”的概念。研究指出:①地方感是人对地方的一种综合性情感体验,有积极的,也有消极的,而地方依恋、地方依赖、地方认同、地方疏远、地方厌恶、地方恐惧等均属于地方感的某一类表现形式;②城中村被周边繁华的都市环境围绕,具有明显的空间分异特征,其居住环境繁杂、邻里关系淡薄,城中村移民缺少地方情感的依附,形成一种“无根式”的消极地方感;③移民在无法融入迁入地的同时,由于无法接受迁出地的变迁与衰退,而在心中形成另一种“失根式”的乡村消极地方感。
There are plenty of Human's emotions to places. Sometimes they are strong and positive, but for particular places, sometimes they may be oppressive and restrictive. Based on the characteristics of Chinese native culture, the author re-conceptualize the sense of place by reviewing the relevant literatures at home and abroad, the author argues that: 1) the sense of place may have both positive affect and negative affect in Chinese version, and the place attachment, place identity, place dependent, place alienation, place detachment and place of fear are the specific forms of sense of place; 2)In-depth interviews with 33 migrants who live in the urban village in Canton exposes the fact that there are negative senses of place both on the urban where they are living and the villages where they came from; 3)The negative sense of place may exist in any other place and we are here call more attention to the negative sense of place. The negative sense of place has abundant conceptual connotations and empirical analysis, it has far-reaching profound and lasting effect to human's lives. The research has made a new conclusion about the human's emotion to place, especially for the sense of place and its relationships to the place identity, place dependence and place attachment after a deep literatures preview. The research may improve the theoretical framework of place. These have bring a new idea to the research of China's social problem and enlarge the research of culture geography.Documentary method, field research, depth interview are the main methods we used here.
