Product Information
2004 winner of the Robert E. Park Book Award from the Community and Urban Sociology Section (CUSS) of the American Sociological Association Although the death of the small town has been predicted for decades, during the 1990s the population of rural America actually increased by more than three million people. In this book, Sonya Salamon explores these rural newcomers and the impact they have on the social relationships, public spaces, and community resources of small town America. Salamon draws on richly detailed ethnographic studies of six small towns in central Illinois, including a town with upscale subdivisions that lured wealthy professionals as well as towns whose agribusinesses drew working-class Mexicano migrants and immigrants. She finds that regardless of the class or ethnicity of the newcomers, if their social status differs relative to that of oldtimers, their effect on a town has been the same: suburbanization that erodes the close-knit small town community, with especially severe consequences for small town youth. To successfully combat the homogenization of the heartland, Salamon argues, newcomers must work with oldtimers so that together they sustain the vital aspects of community life and identity that first drew them to small towns. An illustration of the recent revitalization of interest in the small town, Salamon's work provides a significant addition to the growing literature on the subject. Social scientists, sociologists, policymakers, and urban planners will appreciate this important contribution to the ongoing discussion of social capital and the transformation in the study and definition of communities.

- l***s (518)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoI saw this movie on eBay, and this seller had best value - best price, new item and free postage. Quick processing and good communication - informed of posting, delivery - arrived on the earliest days of the estimated delivery dates, via Aramex in vacuumed pack. No damage during transit and the DVD disc looked new as per ad. I am very happy with this purchase and very happy with this seller. Thank you.
- a***7 (6)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoOrdered on the 25th, left Melbourne on the 23rd, arrived Midday 25th. Had to message the seller so I knew who the shipping agent was so I could track it. Well packaged, prompt service and having done online purchases before and being disappointed with tracking, cannot praise Direct Freight Express enough for moving the item through the processes while they had it. I'm sure this textbook will help me a lot in my course I'm about to start.
