Description:Excerpt from The Urban CommunityAs a matter of fact, the city has been the happy hunting ground of movements: the better-government movement, the social-work movement, the public-health movement, the playground movement, the social-center movement, the settlement movement, the Americanization movement. All these movements, lacking a basic understanding or conception of the city, have relied upon administrative devices, for the most part, to correct the evils of city life. Even the community organization movement, theoretically grounded upon a conception of the city as a unit, had the misfor tune to stake its program upon an assumption of the supreme value of the revival of the neighborhood in the city instead of upon a prag matic, experimental program guided by studies of actual conditions and trends in urban life.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
