Cattell, Vicky. Poverty, community and health [electronic resource] : co-operation and the good society / Vicky Cattell. New York : Palgrave Macmillan, 2012. ix, 195 p. Includes bibliographical references and index. Machine generated contents note: -- Acknowledgements -- List of Abbreviations -- Introduction: Social Murder -- Utopian Dreams? -- Researching Poverty, Community and Health -- Community Resilience -- Community Demoralisation and Resistance -- Social Capital in Urban Neighbourhoods: the Potential for Unity and Division -- Well-being and Happiness: Balancing Community with Independence -- Social Network Characteristics and Health and Well-Being -- Conclusions: Poverty, Community and Health in the 'Good Society' -- Bibliography -- Index. "Despite plentiful evidence on poverty and reduced health chances and on the benefits of co-operative social networks and social capital, the nature of the relationship between them remains uncertain. Yet an enhanced understanding is needed if we are to gain, not only a more effective purchase on social processes involved in well-being, or on links between poverty and place, but also of the stratagems people adopt to challenge or cope with social and economic difficulties and resist their deleterious effects. Drawing on key concepts and on community studies conducted in East London housing estates, this book brings together diverse strands of influence on participatory community life and individual well-being. Residents' rich narratives are used to emphasize the significance of different social network patterns for mediating disadvantage and happiness. The book makes a timely contribution to post 2010 policy agendas and to current political debates on the 'big society' and the 'good society'"-- Provided by publisher. Electronic reproduction.
