City & Community
Edited by Anthony M. Orum
City & Community <http://www.commurb.org/journal/index.html> is
dedicated to publishing research and theory that explore the
social aspects of the metropolis.
How do people get attached to places? How do inequalities and
differences shape a city and how does the city influence
differences and inequalities? How does an internet community
compare to a traditional community? Aimed at exploring the
meaning and significance of the metropolis, C&C includes works on
immigration, rural communities, social networks, suburbia, urban
movements, urban history, and virtual communities among others.
Highlights Include:
-"Los Angeles and the Chicago School: Invitation to a Debate" by
Michael Dear, with a series of responses by Andrew Abbott, Harvey
Molotch, Saskia Sassen, Robert Sampson and Terry Clark (Vol. 1,
No.1)
-"What Happened to Gender Relations on the Way from Chicago to
Los Angeles?" by Daphne Spain (Vol. 1, No.2)
-"Ever-More Rooted Americans" by Claude S. Fischer (Vol. 1, No.2)

(Vol. 1, No.4)
