Theoretical and philosophical work on community has yielded
multifold definitions and analytical frameworks. Kenneth C. Bessant
reflects on the inherent complexity and diversity of this deeply
intersubjective aspect of lived social experience. He explores the
relational underpinnings of early and more contemporary approaches
to the study of community, with a particular emphasis on their core
assumptions, concepts, and tenets. Each of these perspectives
offers a relatively distinct interpretation of community, while
also revealing the intrinsically relational fabric of its perpetual
emergence, dynamism, and transformation. The 'being-with' of
relational social existence is the fundamental basis upon which all
conceptions of community are built, and this is the epicenter
around which the book revolves. Community is born of, exists
within, and brings forth social relations. It is a living
expression of relational willing, thinking, and acting.
