…it should be noted that politics of place must not be regarded as equal to ‘politics in place’. ‘Politics in place’ does not necessarily include dimensions which would have effects on meanings or essence of place. ‘Politics of place’ always have at least an aim to change the physical or mental appearance of the place.
