This comprehensive book delves into the intricate concept of community by critically examining its diverse manifestations in leisure. It unpacks the patterns of mutuality, collective expression, and belonging that emerge through interaction, shared narrative, and practice. Recognizing the need for a reevaluation of our experiences of "being in common" and "being in leisure" in the context of a changing modernity, the book showcases the myriad ways in which leisure communities take shape and evolve in the current economic, political, and ideological landscape. It highlights how shifting societal expectations, economic conditions, technological innovations, and ideological shifts create the conditions for a reformulation of social relations and the emergence of new leisure-based social groupings. The authors engage in a thought-provoking exploration of how to make sense of these new social expressions, often offering unexpected and innovative approaches to theorizing community.
Spanning a global perspective, this book offers a rich and multifaceted understanding of how to engage with and theorize leisure in relation to the various dimensions of community. It will serve as a valuable resource for readers across a wide range of social sciences, including sociology, community studies, leisure studies, and planning. By exploring the complexities of community through the lens of leisure, this book encourages a new generation of scholars to critically examine and understand the role of leisure in shaping our social interactions and collective identities.
