"Considerations for Defining and Strengthening Community for Environmental Health"
by: Dianne Quigley, Syracuse University (2006)
Published on: 11/1/2006

"Considerations for Defining and Strengthening Community for Environmental Health" assists community health researchers in understanding historical changes that affected the moral strength of "community" in order to protect its most important meanings of social ties, belonging, preservation of its resources and its moral solidarity. Perspectives from sociologists will give community advocates and health researchers a deeper understanding on what may be needed to restore a definition and infrastructure for the community with outside forces so that "communities" can protect themselves from forces of exploitation, anomie and degradation in contemporary society.
