The first part of the book is concerned with developing the
place perspective. Three dimensions of place are put forward:
locale and sense of place describe the objective and subjective
dimensions of local social arrangements within which political
behaviour is realized; location refers to the impact of the
macro-order, to the fact that a single place is one among many and
that the social life of a place is embedded in theworkings of the
state and the world economy.
The second part of the book provides detailed examinations of
American and Scottish politics, using the place perspective.
Contrary to the view that place or locality is important only in
traditional societies, this book argues that place is of continuing
significance in even the most advanced societies. "
