Abstract :

The concept of community has two relative aspects, namely, the geographical and the psychological. Geographically, it may be considered as a contiguous distribution of people with their social institutions. Psychologically, it may be thought of in terms of the elements that combine to make it a dynamic and living entity. Since both these elements are important, the community may be considered to be a complex social entity that has both a physical locus and psychological consensus.[1] Community, therefore, is defined as "a social unity whose members recognize as common, a sufficiency of interest to allow the interactivities of common life" and the definition is further qualified with the averment that "any circle of people ... who belong together, so that they share ... a whole set of interests wide enough and complete enough to include their lives, is a community".
