Beschreibung

The authors'' model orients this community in the vortex of contemporary forces, pointing up, for example, the need for face-to-face interaction among residents versus the larger society''s demand for electronic communication. With increasing conflicts between the culture of rural communities and that of the  outside world" occurring, small towns all over the United States are losing their businesses, their doctors, and their sense of community. Yet the town described in this study is thriving. Against All Odds  identifies pride, determination, and a sense of belonging that must be nurtured,and the local organization that binds all of these factors together,in order to keep a small town alive in the face of powerful disruptive forces. Not since Vidich and Bensman''s landmark  Small Town in Mass Society  has such a thoughful examination of a contemporary rural community been available.
