In recent times, there has been a substantial push by people to escape the metropolis for lifestyles in small coastal, country, or mountainside locales. This book explores the narratives emerging from amenity-left migration using methods developed within the 'strong' cultural sociology.
In recent times, there has been a substantial push by people to escape the metropolis for lifestyles in small coastal, country, or mountainside locales. Called amenity-led migration, this movement is cultural with places of relatively quiet and peace standing against the city with its stressful, risky, and polluted environment. This book explores the narratives emerging from this extraordinary phenomenon using methods developed within the "strong" cultural sociology. Using narrative theory combined with broader sociological concepts, the book illustrates effectively how the city has declined in value against a countryside left behind in modern progress.
