{"product_id":"understanding-community-peter-somerville-9781447316084","title":"Understanding Community: Politics, Policy and Practice","description":"This substantially revised edition of a highly topical text draws upon theory from Marx and Bourdieu to offer a clearer understanding of community in capitalist society. The book takes a more critical look at the literature on community, community development and the politics of community, and applies this critical approach to themes introduced in the first edition on economic development, learning, health and social care, housing, and policing, taking into account the changes in policy that have taken place, particularly in the UK, since the first edition was written. It will be a valuable resource for researchers and students of social policy, sociology and politics as well as areas of housing and urban studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Somerville\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1447316088\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781447316084\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Policy Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/25\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.00d","brand":"Peter Somerville","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46571076124927,"sku":"9781447316084","price":47.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_606073bf-6e9d-4525-9ca3-472fb5ec1419.jpg?v=1738807175","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/understanding-community-peter-somerville-9781447316084","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
