Answer:

Community:

Man cannot live in isolation. He cannot live alone. He keeps contact with his fellow beings for his survival. It is not possible for him to keep contact with all the people or to belong as a member of all the groups existing in the world

He establishes contact with a few people who live in close proximity or presence to him in a particular area or locality. It is quite natural for people living in a particular locality for a longer period of time to develop a sort of likeness or similarity among themselves. They develop common ideas, common customs, common feelings, common traditions etc.

They also develop a sense of belonging together or a sense of we-feeling. This kind of common social living in a specific locality gives rise to the community. The examples of community include a village, a tribe, a city or town. For example in a village community, all the villagers lend each other hand in the event of need in agriculture and in other occupations.

They take part in all important occasions which occur in a neighbour’s home. They are present when marriages, deaths, births take place in any family. They celebrate the festivals together, worship common deities and jointly face all calamities. In this way the sense of belongingness in generated among the villagers which creates village community.

Meaning of Community :The word community has been derived from two words of Latin namely ‘com’ and munis. In English ‘com’ means together and ‘munis’ means to serve. Thus, community means to serve together. It means, the community is an organisation of human beings framed for the purpose of serving together. Community is a people living within a geographical area in common inter-dependence. It exists within the society. It is bound by the territorial units. It is a specific group while society is abstract. “Community living is natural to man.

He is born in it and grows in the community ways. It is his small world. Men, we have seen began with group life. Over the time, they occupied a habitat and while in permanent occupation of it; they developed likeness, common habits, folkways and mores, interdependence and acquired a name.

They developed amongst themselves a sense of togetherness and an attachment to their habitat. A community thus has a habitat, strong community sense, and a manner of acting in an agreed and organized manner. There are various definitions of community.

Osborne and Neumeyer write, “Community is a group of people living in a contiguous geographic area, having common centres of interests and activities, and functioning together in the chief concerns of life.”
