Sustaining Communities: Prospects and Challenges e-bog

This book focuses on current sociological and socioeconomic issues, including recent developments, techniques and strategies within the current socioeconomic development spectrum of the 21st century. More specifically, this book presents a discussion of the planning and designing of a modern sustainable socioeconomic system, adequate for modern societies and communities, analyzing both technical and socio-cultural aspects. Systems that are planned and designed without considering these aspects often limit their efficiency or even fail. On this matter, this book fills a gap in socioeconomic literature by exploring and studying main dimensions of the interaction between some of the most important socioeconomic aspects and related factors (both theoretically and empirically).
