EspañolJOHN A. AGNEW
'John A. Agnew' was a prominent British American political geographer, 2003-2004 Guggenheim Award winner and currently Professor of Geography at UCLA.
In ''Place and Politics'' (1987), John Agnew contends that for a space to become a 'place', three requirements need to be met :
★ A specific location, something that answers the question, 'Where?'
★ A locale - the actual shape of the space, such as walls in a room or parks and streets in a city, etc
★ A sense of place - the personal and emotional attachment people have to a space (or rather, place, now that the three requirements have been met)[1]
