Understanding the Definitions and Functions of Community



free pop culture crossword puzzles

A variety of terms can be used to describe the three types of community. Some of these terms include: Geographic locus (or common interest + relationships), and Stable solidary, intimate primary groups type. Each one will be explained in detail in this article. You should remember that these definitions do not necessarily mean the same thing. These examples will help you understand the relationship between these terms and the same thing.

Stable, solidary, and intimate primary group type

When members have a common interest, they form primary groups and work together to pursue it. The members of the group don't view the group itself as an end in themselves, but rather as a pathway to a greater goal. The members have a common interest so they can communicate freely and without any barriers. The membership of the primary group does not have a time limit. It is instead an open and long-term group.

Geographic location

Geographic locus of community is the place where a group of people lives. The term can describe general locations, specific settings, and joint action. Although community members can live together in a physical location or elsewhere, the term also describes their social ties. In Durham and Philadelphia, the locus for community was different. Participants in both cities emphasized the importance of social ties as well as joint action to build a sense community.


Relationships between members

The social network of a group is composed of relationships among its members. In any ecosystem, all organisms are connected to each other, and relationships between members of a community are no different. These relationships can influence natural selection as well as the evolution of interrelated species. Predation is a key element in the relationships among community members. Competition and symbiosis also play a significant role. These relationships can contribute to the health and well-being of a community.

Intervention

A community-based prevention strategy requires a connection between process and outcomes evaluation. This is necessary to understand local adaptation and track program evolution. Interventions disrupt the normal evolution of an incident, usually through a trigger from outside the community. This trigger could be a grant opportunity. The resources from the outside can then be applied to solving a specific problem within the community or to improving local conditions.

Prevention

In prevention studies, the term community refers to a group that shares the same geographical space, interests and goals. Communities offer many potential targets for prevention. These groups often form networks to share resources and potential opportunities. They can also benefit from collaboration with other organizations and with state and national-level agencies. These groups can help to evaluate community prevention efforts and channel resources for local initiatives.
