Drawing on six years of research and advocacy in Cincinnati's East End river community, Halperin (anthropology, U. of Cincinnati) argues for redefining community by viewing it as a set of culturally embedded and class-marked practices that give priority to caring for children and the elderly, procuring livelihood, and providing support for family, friends, and neighbors. She shows how these practices create the structures of community within the larger urban power structure. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
