Examining the idea of "community", this study locates the current problems of society in the conditions of modern capitalism. It illustrates critical assumptions about the roles of morality and religion including the impact of modernity, the value of difference, and the nature of moral connection.
The idea of "community" is increasingly vital to our individual and social well-being. Yet at the same time, our ordinary communal relations are being eroded by increased social and geographical mobility, lost traditions, and the growing pluralism of society. Examining this renewed desire for community, Coming Together/Coming Apart locates the current problems of society in the conditions of modern capitalism. Arising out of a common matrix of a world in crisis, contemporary religious, social and feminist discussions of community compose an ideological struggle over the reformation of society.
