Home-city geographies: Urban dwelling and mobility/

Blunt, Alison

Home-city geographies: Urban dwelling and mobility/ - Sage, 2019. - Vol 43, issue 5, 2019 : (815-834 p.).

Developing an agenda to conceptualise the connections between the domestic and the urban, this paper focuses on urban domesticities (homemaking in the city), domestic urbanism (the city as home) and the home-city geographies that connect them. Home-city geographies examine the interplay between lived experiences of urban homes and the contested domestication of urban space. Reflecting the ways in which urban homes and the ability to feel at home in the city are shaped by different migrations and mobilities, the paper demonstrates that not only home and the city, but also urban dwelling and mobility, are intertwined rather than separate.
