Neighborhood Organization and Local Social Action: A Case Study. Li, Y. Journal of Community Practice; 1996, 3, 1, 35 58., 1996.
abstract   bibtex   
Examines the history, structure, \& social, economic, \& political changes of an urban neighborhood in OH, \& how local social actors \& organizations affect those changes, based on personal interviews, newspaper articles, \& other documentation. This case study shows that (1) individual social actors are the most important factors in bringing about change consistent with the local social action system; (2) there is a significant \& positive relationship between the economic condition of the neighborhood \& the success of the changes in the neighborhood; (3) changes consistent with the local social action system are most effectively induced when organizations \& social groups are organized independently, but are associated through coalition activities; \& (4) the larger urban system political \& economic in which the neighborhood is located can have strong influence on the neighborhood change. 2 Tables, 27 References.
