It examines some historical developments in society and sociological understandings of community down to present ‘postmodern' times, majoring on the concepts of Gemeinschaft, Gesellschaft & Bund and the insights of community studies. Finally the paper will seek to set the notion and practice of community work within a value system derived from the Judaeo-Christian tradition, and to spell out the implications for community work in urban Britain at the end of the 20th century. © Oxford University Press Articles nationallicence Community Development Journal Oxford University Press 31/3(1996-07), 250-259 0010-3802 31:3<250 1996 31 cdj https://doi.org/10.1093/cdj/31.3.250 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1093/cdj/31.3.250 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 100 1- Smith Greg Aston Charities Community Involvement Unit NATIONALLICENCE 773 0- Community Development Journal Oxford University Press 31/3(1996-07), 250-259 0010-3802 31:3<250 1996 31 cdj Metadata rights reserved CC BY-NC-4.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 nationallicence BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-oxford
