The most significant results of the different studies carried out in the City-Identity-Sustainability research network and published in this special issue are discussed and evaluated. A general structural model was proposed to analyze the existence of a relationship between social identity and propensity to sustainability in the urban life context in various settings of Latin America and Europe. Propensity to sustainability was valued, and the adjustment to two theoretical models (identification and cohesion) was observed in each setting through the structural equation system. Results confirm that there is a relationship between the degree of social identity and propensity to sustainability. Place identity and social cohesion are variables that influence this relationship in a differential way and vary in accordance to the physical quality of the space and the social status of the setting. Thus, the study provides some management guidelines to advance toward sustainability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
