Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Recent Trends in Rural Planning The theory of laissez faire and the practice of uncoordinated social and institutional development have too long been applied to both the physical and functional aspects of rural institutions and to rural social life. In many communities there has been no planned development at all, but simply an extension of social statics from well into the past up until the present time. Fortunately, neither the doctrine of laissez faire nor the belief in social statics is in good standing at the present time. These have given way before the attack of the more dynamic and more productive theory of social telesis, which holds that the social and institutional life of a community, county, state, or nation may be purposely planned or directed in order to achieve certain predetermined ends or objectives. Such a theory has given meaning and usefulness to the term planning. The present volume represents a compilation of various attempts which have been made to attack, systematically, certain rural problems and to plan for a rural life designed to achieve individual adequacy, on the one hand, and social effectiveness on the other. An attempt has been made to draw not only upon rural planning experiences of rural areas of this country, but also upon the experiences in rural planning in other countries. This volume is designed as a handbook for that great army of workers whose duties take them into the rural field and for the layman who has a constructive interest in rural problems.
