UP533 : Community in American
Society
Overview: |
Classic U. S. community
studies are paired with current journal articles to examine how
people in rural, suburban, and urban places go about making, maintaining
or losing "community" in
the context of societal change. The community studies provide a
window on change at the local level including: urbanization, suburbanization,
ethnic group interactions, inner-city poverty concentration, household
structure variation, economic restructuring, and environmental
impacts. Community studies are also critically evaluated both theoretically
and as a research strategy. Same as SOC
572 and HCD
533. |
