Rural Communities: Legacy and Change uses its unique Community Capitals framework to examine how America's diverse rural communities use their various capitals (natural, cultural, human, social, political, financial, and built) to address the modern challenges that face them. Each chapter opens with a case study of a community facing a particular challenge, and is followed by a comprehensive discussion of sociological concepts to be applied to understanding the case. This narrative, topical approach makes the book accessible and engaging for undergraduate students, while its integrative approach provides them with a framework for understanding rural society based on the concepts and explanations of social science. This fifth edition is updated throughout with 2013 census data and features new and expanded coverage of health and health care, food systems and alternatives, the effects of neoliberalism and globalization on rural communities, as well as an expanded resource and activity section at the end of each chapter. 606 $aSociology, Rural 607 $aUnited States$xRural conditions 615 0$aSociology, Rural. 676 $a307.72 686 $aSOC026020$2bisacsh 700 $aFlora$b Cornelia Butler$01320483 701 $aFlora$b Jan L.$f1941-$01846664 701 $aGasteyer$b Stephen P$01846665 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969938503321 996 $aRural Communities$94431422 997 $aUNINA
