So, I'm kind of wondering how in the world to map the definition of community. I started this map and wondered what you all might have to say about it. I'd love to explore this...
Yes, what the heck is community? And how has it changed in the past two thousand years? This question is especially becoming relevant as I read the book "Imagined Communties" by Bennedict Anderson. It has been quite the interesting read, which has quite a few ideas that are applicable to this course.
I am interested in the bottom part of the figure. Those are three concepts that I wonder about in relation to each other. And yes, Jennifer, Anderson's book is directly relevant. Could have assigned it ;-)
