“…As suggested before, social science research on people's responses to energy technologies has been advocating the need to take into account place attachments and identities (e.g., Devine-Wright, 2009;Swofford & Slattery 2010;Haggett, 2011;Fresque-Baxter & Armitage, 2012), following research from social and environmental psychology on that (e.g., Carrus et al, 2014;DevineWright, 2009;Lewicka, 2005). However, while doing so, that research has often adopted an individual and socio-cognitive perspective (see also Di Masso et al, 2011;Williams, 2013) and neglected that people-place relations are shaped by different and competing representations, claims, and power relations, within and between local communities and individuals. In other words, it has not often critically reflected on and embodied the idea that place attachments and identities are not 'there', but are instead a socially constructed 'way of seeing' (Jones, 1991;Nogué & Vicente, 2004), and also "rhetorical constructions invoked as people seek to influence social relations and policies" (Wallwork & Dixon, 2004, p.35; see also Reicher et al, 1993).…”
