Community Building in the Twenty-First Century, edited by Stanley E. Hyland.

?Community? has long been a critical concept for social scientists, and never more so amid the growing economic inequity, natural and human disasters, and warfare of the opening years of the twenty-first century. In this volume, leading scholar-activists develop a conceptual framework for both the theory and practice of building communities. CCPH members Jean Schensul and Noel Chrisman have authored the following chapters.
