Abstract:
This article focuses upon whether 422 randomly selected older adults believe that Dr. Jack Kevorkian should or should not be prosecuted. The study was conducted by Ball State University's Department of Sociology in the Lynd's classic community setting of “Middletown,” a.k.a. Muncie, Indiana. The findings indicate that a majority of the respondents do not support prosecuting Kevorkian and also feel that the terminally-ill have the right to end their own lives. Of eight variables included in the initial analysis, four were found to explain most of the variance in attitudes toward prosecuting Dr.

A significant problem for small cities is a lack of a sense of community. In some multicultural cities, land use in such categories as residential, commercial, industrial and educational forms separate uses or locations. Such segregation leads ultimately to a city stagnation which eliminates the essential life of vibrant and healthy cities. People commute from zone to zone only when necessary. Each territory is connected by automobile. Therefore, there is no interrelation which can cause discontinuity and fragmentation. The business zones are vacant at night because nobody lives there.

Abstract:
Food security for the urban poor has been an important topic for both developed and developing countries over the last 15 years. Although South Bend Indiana is a city in a developed country, declining economic circumstances have caused the city to show significant urban decay somewhat similar to some cities in developing countries. In this chapter, we explore South Bend's history and economic development strategies, and review practices aimed at strengthening food security for the urban poor. The chapter documents how numerous disparate organizations have been trying to help alleviate urban poverty and hunger, and reviews previous strategies used to foster sustainable growth and development. The integration of spatial technologies will become a key factor for promoting community social networks, participatory planning, and collaboration. The case is presented for the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and associated technologies to help organizations, community leaders, local organizations, city planners, higher education institutions and the urban poor, work together to alleviate poverty and malnutrition through networking and sustainable urban agriculture.

Abstract:
Rural development could be defined simply as economic development in rural areas. However, practitioners and researchers find rural development involves more than mere economic strategies. Many rural communities struggle with changes from resource extractive to service-based economies, along with cultural impacts of globalization (Harrington 1995; Ewert 1997). Rural development in response is becoming integrative like geography, considering class structure, community values, natural resources, social capital, sustainability, and regional and global forces (World Commission on Environment and Development 1987; Straussfogel 1997; Heartland Center for Leadership Development 1998). Rural development has represented an explicit research perspective within geography since 1982. Geographers, through their ability to integrate human and physical aspects of place, can help communities assess complex change and devise strategies to meet their goals (Stoddart 1986; Turner 1989; Abler et al. 1992). Integrated descriptions of human and physical aspects of place can benefit relationships with undergraduate students (Marshall 1991), other geographers (Bowler et al. 1992), rural development researchers in other fields, and rural development practitioners (Kenzer 1989). Geographers may be especially useful in the interdisciplinary world of sustainable development (Wilbanks 1994). The Rural Development Specialty Group began in 1982 as the result of an International Geographic Union (IGU) working group meeting in Fresno, California. The group was formed “to promote sharing of ideas and information among geographers interested in the many facets of rural development.” Richard Lonsdale (University of Nebraska) and Donald Q. Innis (State University of New York at Geneseo) were co-founders. Subsequent leaders included Vincent Miller (Indiana University of Pennsylvania), John Dietz (University of Northern Colorado), Al Larson (University of Illinois at Chicago), Paul Frederic (University of Maine at Farmington), Henry Moon (University of Toledo), Brad Baltensperger (Michigan Technological University), Karen Nichols (State University of New York at Geneseo), William Forbes (University of North Texas), and Peter Nelson (Middlebury College). The group may soon merge with the Contemporary Agriculture and Rural Land Use Specialty Group, forming a larger Rural Geography Specialty Group that will continue to provide a forum for rural development research in geography.

Full text
Abstract:
In the 1960s Edward J. Zebrowski turned the razing of Indianapolis, Indiana into a compelling show of forward-looking community optimism illuminating the power of displacement. When Zebrowski’s company toppled the Knights of Pythias Hall in 1967, for instance, he installed bleachers and hired an organist to play from the back of a truck as the twelve-storey Romanesque Revival structure was reduced to rubble. Two years later, the ‘Big Z’ hosted a party in the Claypool Hotel and ushered guests outside at midnight to watch as the floodlit building met its end at the wrecking ball (Figure 12.1). Zebrowski’s theatricality perhaps distinguished him from the scores of wrecking balls dismantling American cities, but his celebration of the city’s material transformation mirrored the sentiments of many urbanites in the wake of World War II. The post-war period was punctuated by a flurry of destruction and idealistic redevelopment in American cities like Indianapolis just as the international landscape was being rebuilt from the ruins of the war. In 1959 the New York Times’ Austin Wehrwein (1959: 61) assessed the University of Chicago’s massive displacement in Hyde Park and drew a prescient parallel to post-war Europe when he indicated that ‘wrecking crews have cleared large tracts, so that areas near the university resemble German cities just after World War II’. Indeed, much of Europe was distinguished less by ruins and redevelopment than demolition and emptied landscapes removing the traces of warfare that states wished to reclaim or efface; in the United States, urban renewal likewise took aim on impractical, unappealing, or otherwise unpleasant urban fabric and the people who called such places home (see also Ernsten, Chapter 10, for this process associated with the policies of apartheid in Cape Town). These global projects removed wartime debris and razed deteriorating prewar landscapes, extending interwar urban renewal projects that embraced the fantasy of a ‘blank slate’ as they built various unevenly executed imaginations of modernity. However, many optimistic development plans in Europe and the United States alike were abandoned or disintegrated into ruins themselves, simply leaving blank spaces on the landscape. Consequently, the legacy of urban renewal and post-war reconstruction is not simply modernist architecture; instead, post-war landscape transformation is signalled by distinctive absences dispersed amidst post-war architectural space and traces of earlier built environments.
