This distinctive volume combines synthetic theoretical essays and reports of original research to address the interrelations of communication and community in a wide variety of settings. Chapters address interpersonal conversation and communal relationships; journalism organizations and political reporting; media use and community participation; communication styles and alternative organizations; and computer networks and community building; among other topics. The contents offer synthetic literature reviews, philosophical essays, reports of original research, theory development, and criticism. While varying in theoretical perspective and research focus, each of the chapters also provides its own approach to the practice of communication and community. In this way, the book provides a recurrent thematic emphasis on the pragmatic consequences of theory and research for the activities of communication and living together in communities.
Taken as a whole, this collection illustrates that communication and community cannot be adequately analyzed in any context without considering other contexts, other levels of analysis, and other media and modes of communication. As such, it provides important insights for scholars, students, educators, and researchers concerned with communication across the full range of contexts, media, and modes.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. This text addresses the intricacies of the relationship between the complex terms of communication and community by bringing together both new and established voices from across the areas of communication studies to offer analyses of communication and community in diverse contexts. Taken together, the chapters offer a broad examination of the dynamics of communication and community which are often identified but are rarely theorized adequately. Because the relationship between communication and community is both powerful and subtle, many participants in the volume have ventured beyond their particular areas of specialty to consider fundamental questions: 1) What is community, and how has its accomplishment come to be considered problematic? 2) Why is community a current focus of attention? 3) What role does communication play in the construction, maintenance and destabilization of community? The volume is organized into two major sections devoted to interpersonal relations, organizations and community, and to media, the public and community.This division replicates conventional thinking, following apparent distinctions between interpersonal and mediated, micro and macro, and between the issues of communal relations and of geographical communities. The editor's intent is to show, however, that communication and community cannot be adequately analyzed in any context without reference to other contexts, other levels of analysis, and other media and modes of communication. This book works to address the intricacies of the relationship between the complex terms of communication and community by bringing together both new and established voices from across the areas of communication studies to offer analysis of communication and community in diverse contexts.
