Why people recommend it
Where We Are by Roger Scruton is a reflective examination of national identity, home, and the deep emotional attachment people form toward specific places. Russ Roberts discussed the book multiple times across his podcasts. On an episode of Conversations with Tyler, Roberts mentioned Scruton's work in the context of how physical location plays a vital role in human emotional well-being.

Roberts also mentioned Scruton's book in an earlier EconTalk episode with McArdle about catastrophes and the pandemic, noting that the late author's publication struck him as a remarkably important contribution to understanding cultural belonging not just in the United Kingdom, but across the globe as well, prompting an engaging conversation on the topic.
