This book offers the first interdisciplinary survey of community
research in the humanities and social sciences to consider such
diverse disciplines as philosophy, religious studies, anthropology,
sociology, disabilities studies, linguistics, communication
studies, and film studies. Bringing together leading international
experts, the collection of essays critically maps and explores the
state of the art in community research, while also developing
future perspectives for a cross-disciplinary rethinking of
community. Pursuing such a critical, transdisciplinary approach to
community, the book argues, can counteract reductive appropriations
of the term 'community' and, instead, pave the way for a novel
assessment of the concept's complexity. Since community is, above
all, a lived practice that shapes people's everyday lives, the
essays also suggest ways of redoing community; they discuss
concrete examples of community practice, thereby bridging the gap
between scholars and activists working in the field.
