“…Indeed, Hillery (1955) identified 94 different notions of community. In most of these definitions, notions of community are deployed both descriptively and prescriptively (as cited in Reeve, 1997). Reeve and others (e.g., Brint, 2001;D.…”

“…Reeve and others (e.g., Brint, 2001;D. Clark, 1973) also note the ideological use of the term community to create a feeling of desire-particularly in an alienated industrial society (Plant, 1978;Reeve, 1997). For example, Reeve (1997) argues that Tönnies's notion of community "smacks of a romantic nostalgia" (p. 220) and that other conservative modes of community tend to be idealized and backward looking (Plant, 1978;Reeve, 1997).…”

D. Clark (1973) provides a twofold theory of community when he argues that "the two fundamental communal elements of any social system are a sense of solidarity and a sense of significance" (p. 404, emphasis in original).…”

Site the Mine in Our Backyard! Discursive Strategies of Community Stakeholders in an Environmental Conflict in New Zealand

This article is centered around a decision to site a mining operation in a conservation area near a small community on the South Island of New Zealand. Two key groups emerged in the dispute over the decision: One was in favor of the mining operation and one was opposed. This intense conflict provided the opportunity to examine the notion of community as stakeholder-a stakeholder group not often considered by researchers. Through interviews and a media analysis, the discursive strategies employed by the various parties to actively support or oppose the decision are identified. In constituting these positions, both groups engage with broader discourses of place and identity and with classic rhetorical themes in business-environmental conflict. However, the identification of an activist community group willing and eager to have the mining operation sited in their local environment is the most unexpected finding in the research.

“…Drawing back to Tönnies' model of community in an attempt to refine Plant's typology, Reeve argues that community is best treated as a concept informed by absence and the 'perception that industrial society possessed novel features'. 55 The loss of community might be expressed in different ways, and Reeve rightly identifies…”

William Morris and the Problem of Englishness

This article examines William Morris’s idea of Englishness, considered through a critique of his concept of fellowship or community. It looks at the charge that Morris wrongly neglected the importance of nationality as a focus for organization in socialism, preferring instead an internationalist ideal, based on an unworkable model of small-scale community. I defend Morris against these claims by arguing that Morris’s socialism was consistent with expressions of nationality and that his communitarianism was grounded on a concept of enjoyable labour, not friendship as is often supposed.
