Zusammenfassung:This volume addresses the discursive mechanisms behind the attempts to (re)construct communities at urban, local and transnational levels, which were manifest against the background of class antagonism, political polarization and social disruption in the era between the end of the Great War and the cultural revolution of the 1960s. The book offers a new perspective on the social history of twentieth-century Europe by investigating the ideals and ideas, the life worlds and ideologies that emerge behind the use of the concept of community. It explores a wide variety of actors, ranging from the tenants of London council estates to transnational cultural elites
Beschreibung:"(Re)Constructing communities in Europe, was the title of a conference hosted by the editors just before Christmas 2013 in the Soeterbeeck Study Center in Ravenstein, a former monastery that provided the appropriate surroundings and atmosphere for an intensive three-day academic discussion on the construction of communities."
