Abstract

I must start by saying that I am somewhat torn between two ways of approaching this problem. On the one hand I would very much like to talk in detail about programmes of community development, the way they can be organised, and their consequences. On the other hand I would like to review some of the results of several survey investigations in which I have been involved and then go on to talk about ways in which I would like to see this work extended. Although these two courses of action are largely mutually exclusive as far as this evening’s paper is concerned I myself regard them as having a great deal of overlap.
