| Zusammenfassung: | Considered to be a classic book for social work practitioners, this thoroughly updated edition covers more recent literature, research findings, case illustrations, and cross-cultural perspectives. This edition also reviews and tries to explain the changes in community organization that have taken place in the last decade. It introduces new theoretical viewpoints--exchange theory and organizational change theory--to help better understand these changes. Theoretical material concerning reciprocity and alienation is also introduced in this edition. Other themes are: relative deprivation; accountability; stages of group development and participatory benefits; methods and techniques of community assessment; contracting prospective members and outreach; theories and techniques of establishment rapport; leadership and its development; and organizational theory.
