Aqa A level Geography NEA help ( lit review)

Ok so im quite lost on what my teachers want me to do for my NEA. With my title when i went thru it with everyone they said it was fine but when i proposed it to my teachers they had a plethra of problems but everyone elses seemed to be fine, so i have a feeling they have something out for me so i want to make sure my lit review is atleast good enough for them not to just tell me to redo it all 5x over. So with my actual Nea im gonna look into 2 places ( one more affluent and generally cleaner, safer and more green etc and then one much less affluent with stigmas against crime , safety, drugs etc ) and so for my lit review so far ive done what i thought was right ( because to my understanding the point of the lit review is to give you sources and reasons as to why your NEA will be useful to do or something ? ) so ive done like an intro, a paragraph about Insider & outsider perspectives and then explained my source a bit and why its good for my NEA and then i just linked the source below it, and then i repeated that once more but for place identity, and i am about to do 2 more ( one maybe for neighbourhood stigmas and then one for like community and social capital but tbh not sure ) , so if anyones done anything similar or has any top tips for my lit review please lmk because im stressing over the fact on trying to make it atleast a good enough first draft! I'll put what ive done so far here if anyone is willing to read it and tell me what im doing right / wrong , thanks for reading :smile:

Insider & Outsider perspectives:
Edward Relph’s Place and Placelessness (1976) is a key text for understanding how people can relate to places that they live in. Relph introduces the concept of insideness, which is the level of attachment, belonging and concern people have for a place, and outsideness, which is where individuals can feel disconnected or alienated to their surroundings. Relph argues that there is a deep insideness experienced when people feel entirely at home in their community, whilst outsideness reflects more of a strangeness or even a stigma.
Relph also talk about placelessness, which is where distinct places lose authenticity usually though stereotypes or standardisation. These ideas are directly relevant to my study as Hale Barns is probably likely to display insideness, as long term residency and affluence can create a strong sense of belonging , which is more common in Hale barns, whereas in Partington i may see more outsideness, with deprivation and negative portrayals of the area on the media , which might reduce the residents sense of place.

Place Identity
Furthermore, place identity has been looked at by many people such at Proshansky et al ( 1983) , Peng , Strijker and Wu ( 2020). Their review looks at how place identity ecompasses belonging , meaning and symbolic associations which are reinforced with cohesion in a community . Outsider representations also can shape place identity, as stigmas can influence residents self perception. These findings have clear link for my study,where i can use it for different methods including questionnaires measuring belonging , safety and years lived in each area . Looking at this literature , I would expect that Hale Barns residents will report stronger attachment and belonging than those in Partington, where place identity may be weaker due to deprivation and external perceptions.
