The Rural Mind And Social Welfare (1922) - Ernest Rutherford Groves - Bog

The Rural Mind And Social Welfare is a book written by Ernest Rutherford Groves in 1922. The book explores the relationship between the rural mind and social welfare in the United States during the early 20th century. Groves argues that the rural mind, which he defines as the attitudes, beliefs, and values of people living in rural areas, plays a significant role in shaping social welfare policies and programs.The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the rural mind and its impact on social welfare. Groves argues that the rural mind is characterized by a strong sense of individualism and self-reliance, which can make it difficult to implement social welfare programs in rural areas.The second part of the book examines specific social welfare programs and their effectiveness in rural areas. Groves looks at programs such as public health, education, and relief for the poor and argues that they need to be tailored to the unique needs of rural communities in order to be successful.The final part of the book looks at the role of social workers in addressing the challenges of rural social welfare. Groves argues that social workers need to be trained to understand the rural mind and to develop strategies for working with rural communities.Overall, The Rural Mind And Social Welfare is an important contribution to the field of social welfare and rural sociology. It provides valuable insights into the challenges of providing social welfare services in rural areas and offers practical solutions for addressing these challenges.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
