520 1  "Popular wisdom and many rural centres make the claim that
       the country is a great place to raise kids. But is it? 
       Kieran Bonner explores this question by examining the 
       epistemological, political, and ethical issues involved in
       the claim." "Bonner analyses historical contributions to 
       the urban-rural debate by Karl Marx, Ferdinand Tonnies, 
       Max Weber, Georg Simmel, Louis Wirth, and Robert Redfield,
       as well as contributions by contemporary theorists such as
       Ray Pahl, Anthony Giddens, and Peter Berger. He shows how 
       both societal developments and scientific assumptions 
       unwittingly shape the debate, making a distinctive rural 
       culture more and more difficult to identify, and suggests 
       that phenomenology can rescue the urban-rural debate from 
       its conceptual predicament." "Through an analysis of 
       statements by parents in both urban and rural settings, 
       Bonner goes on to point out the limitations of a narrowly 
       scientific approach to research, demonstrating how a more 
       radical interpretive approach that combines 
       phenomenological, hermeneutic, and dialectical analytic 
       methods and theories can further our understanding. He 
       argues convincingly that practical/ethical matters and 
       theoretical assumptions are inextricably intertwined."--
