Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The journal publishes research on the spatial and social dimensions of contemporary societal transformations. Topics include population ageing in urban and regional contexts, the representation of communities in educational media, the dynamics of cross-border metropolitan regions, and the emotional and social impacts of gentrification. It also explores urban governance, planning, and sociospatial inequality in post-colonial cities, as well as feminist activism and commemorative practices in urban spaces. Further research addresses ontological resilience in rural communities, the regional economic and socio-spatial effects of theme parks, and the transformation of multilocality in response to remote work. The journal also examines the role of digital technology in rural development and identity reconstruction for older adults, the implications of economic de-globalisation for regional innovation systems, and the ethical considerations and political economy of migration studies. Additionally, it investigates the impact of natural blue spaces on well-being, the participation of indirect stakeholders in urban redevelopment, and the spatial diffusion of family changes. Finally, it explores the creation of green regional industries without institutional support.
