Re-Defining, Re-Inventing, and Re-Establishing Community.

Moore, Linda R.

Equity and Choice, v9 n2 p5-9 Win 1993

Changes in national demographics have altered how we define community. The community may be a geographic area of home life, a place for coming together voluntarily, or an association of people with similar interests and values. New communities must develop their own infrastructures and capacities for sustaining themselves. (SLD)
