Böcker av Talja Blokland

Community is a central idea in urban studies but remains conceptually vague and empirically difficult to work with. Building on existing theories of community, Talja Blokland offers an important contribution to defining and understanding this key theme.

Explores the nature of social networks and the significance of voluntary associations for contemporary urban life. This volume is suitable for scholars and students of sociology, geography, and urban studies, as well as to policy makers.
