Philip O. Sijuwade, Urban Community and Personality: A Critical Assessment, The Social Sciences, Volume 5,Issue 5, 2010, Pages 458-466, ISSN 1818-5800, sscience.2010.458.466, (https://makhillpublications.co/view-article.php?doi=sscience.2010.458.466) Abstract: Urban Sociology is a troubled field, its doleful state epitomized by the common use of its name to cloak the study of multifarious social problems. This symbolic diffusion of identity is but a manifestation of more fundamental difficulties in definition and directions. It is the purpose of this study to address those difficulties. I deal here with basic theoretical, conceptual and methodological issues in the study of urban community and personality.
