Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences
In transforming deprived areas into great places to live much attention has been given to the physical, social and economical aspects of deprivation. However, little is known about the relationship between deprivation and emotional ties: What makes residents in deprived areas feel at home in their neighbourhood?
In this PhD thesis Peter van der Graaf focused on the emotional ties of residents to their neighbourhood and researched how these ties are affected by urban renewal. He also compares practices between the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, where the emotions of residents are considered more in urban renewal.
Peter van der Graaf is an experienced social science researcher. After obtaining his Master degree in Sociology at Utrecht University, he worked for nine years as a researcher at the Verwey-Jonker Institute in Utrecht. Recently, he moved to the United Kingdom with his family, where he works as a Research Fellow at the Social Futures Institute at the University of Teesside in Middlesbrough..
