"What makes a society civic? With prisons bulging, gated communities commonplace and courts choked with lawsuits, civic society in the United States at the turn of the millennium seems to be in full retreat. Professor Tom Rice, head of the UNI Political Science Department, contends there is no better time than now to examine what it means to be civic and what it will take for individuals and communities to generate the social capital necessary for a renewal of civic society in the United States."--Container.
