This dissertation considers the politics and processes of place-making in a small historical landmark town, Locke, California, located in the Sacramento River Delta. The case study is centered on the urban redevelopment and preservation project conducted by the County of Sacramento and the State of California, which transformed the governance and land ownership patterns in the town as part of an attempt to remedy past injustices committed against Chinese and other Asian groups in relation to property rights, thus altering the social and political structure of the town.

520 $a This dissertation considers the politics and processes of place-making in a small historical landmark town, Locke, California, located in the Sacramento River Delta. The case study is centered on the urban redevelopment and preservation project conducted by the County of Sacramento and the State of California, which transformed the governance and land ownership patterns in the town as part of an attempt to remedy past injustices committed against Chinese and other Asian groups in relation to property rights, thus altering the social and political structure of the town.
520 $a This case study is developed by focusing on three groups of agents. One, the town's residents and the rivalrous factions they formed. Two, the Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment and California State Parks Agencies. Three, the dominant Chinese American booster organizations that promoted the historical designation of the town and its preservation. The meaning and experience of all three groups is traced using a combination of ethnographic, archival and participant-observation methods.
520 $a Current geographical theories of place-making articulate the concept of place-space in three general ways: first, by establishing dichotomous relations between space and place; second, by treating place-space as the setting in which social relations are exchanged in a linear fashion; and third, by positing a mutual constitution of space and place. Despite the theoretical advances these theories offer, the case study suggests that all three tend to generalize the process of place-making, in particular, by assuming a unified effort directed at some collective goal. It is argued that place-space is better understood as a heterogeneous process involving a diversity of individual perspectives, experiences, and interests that can produce multiple places within a place.
