"An important contribution to our knowledge of social control in anincreasingly significant segment of society, the metropolitan suburb. The studyis rich with insight and understanding of the meanings of events in the contextof suburban life."--Matthew Silberman, Bucknell University, "An important contribution to our knowledge of social control in an increasingly significant segment of society, the metropolitan suburb. The study is rich with insight and understanding of the meanings of events in the context of suburban life."--Matthew Silberman, Bucknell University, "A refreshing addition to existing critiques of contemporary urban designand planning. It makes planners and designers ponder what kind of life thesuburban built environment supports and facilitates."--Journal of the AmericanPlanning Association, "A very stimulating and well-written monograph, which should be appreciated by many undergraduate and graduate students."--Contemporary Sociology, "A refreshing addition to existing critiques of contemporary urban design and planning.

Synopsis
"Direct, clearly written, and well-focused and provides a very provoking case study for those concerned with current moral practices and patterns."--Ethics, Surrounding all major cities in the United States are numerous smaller communities collectively known as suburbia. The most popular place of residence in America, the suburbs are peaceful and tranquil environments, where civility prevails and disturbances of the peace are uncommon. Drawing on research, observation, and hundreds of in-depth interviews conducted during a twelve-month study of an affluent New York City suburb, M.P. Baumgartner reveals that the apparent serenity of the suburb is caused by the avoidance of open conflict. She contends that although nonviolence, nonconfrontation, and tolerance produce a superficial social harmony, these behaviors arise from disintegrative tendencies in modern culture--transience, fragmentation, weak family and communal ties, isolation, and indifference--conditions customarily viewed as sources of disorder, antagonism, and violence. A kind of moral minimalism pervades the suburbs, a disorganized social order that, with the suburbs' rapid growth in America, promises to be the moral order of the future. A valuable contribution to the literature on social control, this study of conflict management should attract general readers and scholars alike., Surrounding all major cities in the United States are numerous smaller communities collectively known as suburbia.

- v***v (2077)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
