TY - JOUR PY - 1932// TI - Community Organization JO - American journal of sociology A1 - Bowman, LeRoy E. SP - 924 EP - 929 VL - 37 IS - 6 N2 - During 1931 the "community" in America was very weak. Due to the continued economic crisis, relief resources in many cases have been exhausted and standards of living and relief standards lowered. Community relief has come largely from public or governmental sources. An "unemployment" psychology prevails, evident in lack of unity of purpose, spontaneous leadership, or effective community organization. Interest has centered around the concept regionalism. Consolidation in rural fields and "situation" approach in urban activities have been emphasized.
