Urban Communication Systems: Neighborhoods and the Search for Community
No Customer Reviews
This book is a call for more research into urban systems in general and communication patterns specifically within geographically defined units of analysis. Community is a key concept in discussions of how technology is affecting people's lives today. As the Internet links people to larger ""virtual communities,"" we need to revisit how neighborhoods help people find community if urban areas are to thrive as social systems. The book treats the urban system as the focus in a unique attempt to integrate the literature from communication with other disciplines focusing on cities. The book employs macro systems theory in conjunction with other theories to explain how neighborhoods fit into people's search for community.
