This scoping study looks at the role architecture plays in humanities research into the cohesion and/or disintegration of communities, and suggests areas for collaboration. Without prejudice to other disciplines we developed the architecture – psychoanalysis collaboration as a worked example. The project has 5 components: Literature review of humanities databases beginning with keywords “architecture and community”; Paper based on this work titled “Architecture and its Communities” drafted by Thomas Deckker; Study visit to recent housing in the Netherlands in which social science and humanities people advised the design team; Symposium in Dundee: a presentation of findings to our humanities advisory group + a discussion of future collaborative research; Proposals for collaborative research with the humanities disciplines (item 9 of this report + appendixes 1&2).
