According to the author, the physical realities of living space—such as how kitchen layouts restrict cooking, the size of social areas limits gatherings with friends, and dining tables represent aspirations—have a salient connection to the beliefs, culture, and happiness of the individuals in the space. The book’s purpose is to examine the human capacity to create meaning and to rally home mediators (scholars, educators, design practitioners, policy makes, and advocates) to work toward culturally enriched communities in which everyone can thrive. The volume includes stories from Hmong, Somali, Mexican, Ojibwe, and African American individuals living in Minnesota to show how space intersects with race, gender, citizenship, ability, religion, and ethnicity to posit that social inequalities are partially spacially constructed and are, therefore, malleable.Sociology, UrbanCultural studiesSocial structureEqualityInterior architectureInteriorsUrban Studies/Sociologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22250Cultural Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22040Social Structure, Social Inequalityhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22010Interior Architecture and Designhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K15007Sociology, Urban.Cultural studies.Social structure.Equality.Interior architecture.Interiors.Urban Studies/Sociology.Cultural Studies.Social Structure, Social Inequality.Interior Architecture and Design.728Hadjiyanni Tasoullaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1063988BOOK9910341852803321The Right to Home2535750UNINA
