| Summary: | To understand the phenomenon of place attachment towards a specific place,
considerations on people’s perspectives involving historical, cultural and
geographical aspects are needed, in order to disclose the influences of local
characteristics in the process of place attachment formation. This study was
conducted to understand the concept of place attachment of peoples of Tana Luwu
towards historical sites of Islamic period of Kedatuan Luwu in South Sulawesi,
and the predictors that influence it.
This research study was conducted using quantitative method, applying statistical
analysis techniques, i.e coincidence analysis and level of significance test. The
research framework was developed in reference to model of tripartite dimension
of place attachment from Scannel and Gifford (2010), consisted of place-personprocess
dimensions. The data were collected by distributing questionnaires to
303 respondents who were selected purposively.
From the research findings, it can be concluded that the place attachment of
peoples of Tana Luwu towards historical sites of Islamic period of Kedatuan
Luwu is more related to affective aspects or positive emotional feeling rather than
cognitive and behavioural aspects. The characteristics of peoples that
significantly related to place attachment are family tree and belief system.
Meanwhile, the characteristics of sites that most significantly related to place
attachment is the meaning of place conceived by local peoples.
This research study provides an insight on the strategies that can be applied to
keep the sustainability of historical sites, by providing historical and cultural
knowledges concerning the historical sites to the young generations, within the
family and formal education environment. |
