Lesson 1 The Concepts of Community Structure, Processes and Dynamics,

Community Structure

Discover

A community is not just created or established for the sake of having a so- called community.
Rather it is put up to serve its purpose and to be of service to its members. In other words, a community is
expected to perform some functions in line with its structure, processes and dynamics. Before we come to an
analysis of such functions, let us first look into the details of the structure, processes and dynamics.
By structure, we are talking about the demographic features which could be broken down into two
aspects, namely, how the community is comprised, with particular reference to its population, and how it is
physically made-up. Population is characterized with its diversity and quantity and by their patterns of
interactions. Diversity of the population boils down to the classification according to gender, socio- economic
status, age, ethnicity, designation/position etc. By quantity of the population, we talk about the number of
people living in it. Patterns of interactions would refer to how often the human species come together and
influence each other and how much of this association affects the environment as well.
Further, the community’s physical structure is described according to some indicators like abiotic
factors (topography), geographical factors, heterogeneity of the environment, occurrence of disturbances or
disruptive incidents and others. Abiotic factors would refer to the ‘non-living parts of the ecosystem that shape
the environment’ like the temperature, light, water, salinity and ocean currents. (National Geographic,
page25). Generally, geographical factors would include vegetation, the types of soil, land forms, location,
climatic patterns and even cultural geography. Heterogeneity of the environment logically refers to
the existence of diversity in geography and topography. Heterogeneity is as natural as the
communities because communities cannot be dynamic when you find similar environmental scenarios therein.
Lastly, under the physical structure we also talk about the calamities, natural and man-made, and historical
events which occur and Might influence the community. Instances of calamities
would be storms, earthquakes, soil erosion or even wars or civil disturbances, and all of which truly
affect the physical environment of the community.

Community structure may differ depending on the earlier-mentioned demographic features. For
instance, we take on the Gesellschaft and Gemeinschaft where in the former, population-wise, there could be
an overcrowding of largely- diverse human species owing to the perceived development therein, interaction
could be seen on a more frequent pattern as the species’ need for survival has to be satisfied, some
topographic issues might be encountered like the environment becomes warmer because of the toxicity in
terms of the residents, and power and water supply may become scarce. In the Gemeinschaft, you would
come to view different and forms from the plains through the hills the mountain ranges, would have a feel of
a somehow unadulterated fresh air, and where you seldom get distracted by unprecedented
occurrences.
Community structure, according to www.ymparisto.fi, would also include “the internal structure of an
employment area, town, city, neighborhood or another urban area, the housing, jobs and production, service

1
and leisure time areas, along with transport routes and technical networks, their location and relationships.” In

other words, as per this definition of community structure, every single detail pertaining to the people and place
comprises the structure.

Community processes
A community is powered-up by several processes and it could not withstand existence if it does not
go through these processes. First, we talk about community organizing where anything which pertains to it
shall be put together. This is the process of starting things with the community. This process entails leadership-
leadership which should be innate not only in one or two or three individuals but to be exuded by all the
participants in bringing about community development. Organizing as process may be made possible with the
initiative of the members of the community. Then comes the interactional community, a process which
presupposes that the people who live therein associate and communicate with each other as frequent as they
can and this sustains the existence of a community. This is also done so as to assist people who have difficulty
in getting things done by themselves. Under this process, the members of the community talk with each other,
sharing thoughts and ideas, help each other in any which way they can, literally deal with each other every
single day. If there is a problem to be dealt with about just anything, the members of the community pool their
resources together to get the problem fixed. That is community interaction.

Next, we talk about the process where activities or projects or programs are effected in the
community through which the community developmental objectives are accomplished and social bonding and
networking is fortified. The implementation of programs becomes a process because this is the way to mobilize
the people and make them realize that they are a part of the community. The community would stagnate in the
absence of community initiatives and it would be dynamic should these initiatives be implemented. Like, if
programs to empower the women or capacitate the community will be realized, then the community is
strengthened and made more resilient. Another community process is community dynamics, which, however,
will be discussed as another topic.
Still another community process refers to comprehensive primary health care, which logically entails
heath care program/s. This is considered a process because, as it is now, the health and wellness condition of
the people becomes a primary concern. Health care is singled out from the many aspects of the community
because it has been proven that the health condition of the members of the community has become a
significant indicator of its existence. The community then needs to device a scheme whereby the people’s
health and wellness are prioritized. Should start off with a community-based health center, well-equipped and
maintained in keeping with the medical needs of the people. Regular monitoring of the medical status of the
people must be done. Information dissemination of heath or medical issues be done on a regular basis as well.
Community development is another community process, which obviously talks about progress in
every aspect of the community. This could be gleaned from the economic development as manifested in the
improved standard of living therein, increase in infrastructures, or stable trade and commerce. This could also
be manifested in the enhancement of the culture which obtains in the community. Further, community
development is achieved when the people are empowered and capacitated. As per www.cmmon-org.wis.edu/ ,
community development “encompasses issues related to neighborhood planning, citizen participation,
grassroots organizing, housing, economic development, social welfare, public safety, health, education,
recreation, the environment and other aspects of community life.”
This statement said it all. Indeed, community development talks about a positive change in anything therein
which affects the social life of the people.
2
 Still another community process is labeled as coordination. Coordination as a process has been

defined by Warren, Rose and Bergunder (1974) (https://link.springer.com/) as “those sets of behavior through
which the complex nature of interrelated events are maintained.” Coordination becomes a community process
because it is through this that whatever complexities or problems that may arise in community dynamics and
community action, the community members remain to be well-connected keeping track of each other to
prevent the community from bugging down. No member is perceived to be selfish enough to keep things to
and by himself, that when one encounters a problem, he informs everyone else. Or, say, when there is a
community initiative to be implemented the entire community becomes the beneficiary because everyone was
informed about it and that is the essence of coordination.

Community Dynamics
If we look deeper into the concept, community dynamics is actually one of the processes of a
community because it affects its existence. From the word dynamics alone, we can infer that a community is
vulnerable to change. A community cannot be static, rather it grows, goes through development, or worst
scenario is, if not valued, it may disintegrate. A community is never boring, rather it is full of vigor and stamina
to welcome whatever transformation is there which awaits the community.

Lesson 1.B. Functions of the Community in terms of Structure, Processes and Dynamics
As stated earlier, a community is created not just for the sake of establishing it but to perform
whatever functions which accompany its creation. It goes without saying that it is compared with an organism
playing part of a structure which does not just sit or stand waiting for things to happen in his/her favor rather
would have the initiative to do the endeavors not just for him/her but for everyone else.
After discussing community structure, processes and dynamics, we are left to one topic which is
relating these indicators to how the community would function. Thus, in relation to the aforementioned
indicators, the following is a consolidation of the functions that a community is expected to perform:

1. Social Participation.
To the people (population), it is incumbent in the community to promote unity despite the diversity
through programs or activities which bring people together instead of tearing them apart, like the conduct of
symposium about the eradication of discrimination, or activities which prompts the participation of everyone
regardless of gender, socioeconomic status, academic accomplishment or professional stature or even
political or religious affiliation. Add to these are activities which will enjoin the people to be a part of the
economic, health or medical, religious, and political endeavors of the community. Economically, the people
must be allowed to participate in trade and commerce. Ang the lines of religion, the people must be left alone
to profess their own faith. The same obtains politically, that the people must not be constrained from
expressing their political convictions.
To the least social participation may take place around the neighbourhood, in the church, in the
barangay assemblage center, school (if there is any), the barangay health center, community amusement
center, or in the community business center/s.

3
2. Social Control.
There could be many facets of this function. First, under this the function, it is deemed necessary that
community shall strictly implement and monitor programs for population growth or even its decline, as well as
to regulate the movement of the population in and out of the community, as all of which affect population
count. Second, the community is to be well-aware of what is going on within and outside of its area-of-
responsibility, like social unrest, and must have a ready resolution should such an occurrence pose an adverse
effect to the entirety of the community. Whatever kind of distractions, they will always leave a mark either on
the people or the physical structure of the community.
Third, there has to be a way of prompting the people to comply to the laws and other norms of
behavior set forth therein. Enjoining the people to adhere to the normative standard of behavior could be done
through group pressure or by way of enacting laws and probably make it punitive for those who do not comply.
Laws could either be community-based or based from that of the national government.

3. Socialization.
To prepare the members of the community for a more active social participation, educating them
should be one of the first concerns. In line with the socialization function, the community takes responsibility
in the transmission of local norms of behavior- laws, mores and folkways, as well as the education, inclusive of
the most minute information, of the people. Having been immersed with the local practices and having a little
knowledge about a lot of things, are prerequisites to a productive socialization and interaction within the
community.
Socialization also involves two important factors namely, the physical and the social or personal
factors. The physical factor has reference to the population per se, to any peculiarity describing the place itself
like the design and “arrangement” of the houses or buildings, to the atmosphere therein, and to the pace of
movement of the people. The social or personal factor would refer to the personal characteristics, attitudes and
behavior of the people which affect their interaction. Indeed, these factors influence the process of instilling
community norms and values.

4. Preparedness and Protection.

First, to its physical structure, it is as natural a function of the community to ensure balance of
whatever is in its ecological domain, like bodies of water- usually the rivers, creeks, or falls; rice fields or
agricultural lands; fishing areas; villages and mountains; forests; or subdivision areas, and the like. Further,
the community must make sure that it has obtained an accurate information about its climate, geographical
features and locations, significant landmarks therein and all other physical features of the community. Lastly, if
the community is well-aware of its geographical features, then, it could perform with utmost ardor its
preparedness function, which could be carried out when natural or man-made disasters or calamities occur.

5. Economic.
It is incumbent in the community to sustain its existence, thereby taking responsibility over the so-
called production and distribution of goods and extension of services to the people. This is in line with the
principles of economics. Along this function, the community has to assure the people of food stability,
particularly the basic needs, regulated price of commodities, and regulated distribution of goods as well. Aside
from that, the community is also responsible in providing for the people a means to make a living, basically in
terms of agriculture, like fishing and farming, and industry.
This function also speaks of the services (www.healthypeople.gov/2020/) of whatever nature to be
accorded the people, like preventative services, where recreation facilities like gymnasiums or sports centers,
4
parks, and schools are put up as diversionary measure to lessen the stress of strenuous social life of the
people brought about by the dynamism of their environment; supportive services to include educational
programs, counselling services, health services, policies pertaining to climate change, pollution and the like,
job placement trainings and community development programs and these are extended to the people for the
maintenance and to sustain the health, education and overall welfare of the community; and, rehabilitative
services where Correctional, Mental Health and special needs centers are established to help restore the
people’s capacities and abilities to participate in the community effectively.

6. Health Care.
This function is as significant because this would help sustain the existence of the people and the
community. Activities promoting heath awareness and consciousness like announcements over the radio or
through television programs about the Covid19, distribution of leaflets or postings about the disease would all
fall under this function. Strictly imposing heath standards would help sustain such activities. Heath care as a
function is not merely focused on the provision of medical needs but instilling heath-consciousness in the
people as well.

 Lesson 2 Typologies of Communities

Discover

Communities could not be altogether the same. They may serve similar purpose but the structure,
processes, dynamics and some other features are not the same. This manifest the diverse nature of
communities, and this diversity led to emergence of the different kinds or types of communities. Before we
discuss the typologies of communities, let us first look into a brief literature of the diverse nature of
communities.

Diversity of Communities
What does diversity mean? Diversity is a condition where a range of differences or variation exists.
There is diversity when persons A, B and C have different sexual orientations, where A is a woman, B is man
and C is a transgender. Would it be the same if we talk about the diversity of communities? The answer is yes,
because when we talk about the diversity of communities we are referring to the commitment to recognizing
and appreciating the dissimilarity of characteristics that make people and communities unique as well as
creating and sustaining a surrounding that promotes and celebrates individual and group accomplishment.
Further, this means that communities 1, 2 and 3 would not be comprised of a population displaying the same
characteristics, or geographical and topographical perspectives, otherwise, there would be monotony and no
distinction of progress and development.

Such diversity among communities is manifested according to the following indicators, namely;
1. Dimensions of race and ethnicity, which refers to the racial and ethnic origin of the population the
community is composed of, where the indigenous group of origin of the people is now indicated as
well, like Bago, or Itneg or Kanakanaey and the like.
2. Gender and or sexual orientation of the population, where male or female are no longer the indicators
but to include now the LGBTQ+
3. Socioeconomic status of the population, which talks about the position of the people in the
community.
4. Religious and political and other ideologies of the people, which says that in the communities, there
could be no indication that there is a singular belief or ideology of the people.
5. Geographical and topographical features, referring to the physical characteristics of the community
which indicates if the community is agricultural or industrial, or if it has natural and man-made beautiful
spots and others.
6. Occurrences which come in the form of natural or manmade calamities, or any incident which could
cause social unrest or pose threat to the territorial security or integrity of the community.
The aforementioned indicators would in the long run determine the different types of communities.

Types of Communities
Firstly, what is meant by typology? Simply put, typology is the classification of anything according to a

6
general type, as in this case, it has reference to the classification of communities according to identified
indicators. Below then are the types of communities.

A. According to organization, composition and purpose.

1. Formal community
From the term alone, we can infer that these are the communities which are organized on purpose
and geared towards a particular objective. This type of community is more legalist than the other kinds. It is
anchored on an instituted organizational structure, guided by an established set of laws which could be
punitive in nature. The interaction of the members and all other activities are based from the guidelines set
forth by the community itself, and relationships are less personal. The members may not share the same
community physical structure as they may come from a number of places. Its dissolution may take place as
prescribed in its laws. The most common examples are schools, churches, hospitals, social and civic
organizations and of course the different governments.

2. Informal community
The informal community is composed of people who voluntarily join as the interest or need calls for it.
With respect to goals, the informal community is not duty-bound to accomplish a concrete objective as none is
set with its organization. There are no explicit guidelines or standards to be followed by its members. Anyone
can join and leave without any obligations to the community. In terms of organizational structure, it is usually
not instituted, however, should there be a formal structure, and the community cannot be as legalist about it.
Interaction and relationships are on a more personal level.
This type of community may not prove to be stable because of the absence of a set of standards to
regulate the activities of the members rather whatever the members do or say are based from their emotions
and as an expression of their personal norms and beliefs, thus it is more likely to disintegrate even without the
members knowing it.
Examples of this type of community could be the corporate community, pressure or interest group
community and the like.

3. Sectoral community
From the term sectoral, we could cull out the word sector which refers to a particular group within the
community or the larger society. A classic example this type of community is the very popular community of
women, which could be organized with a membership to come from all over the country. We have cited the
LUVWI as an example of this in an earlier topic. Another example of a sectoral community is that of the
indigenous peoples, and a more concrete example would be the Bago community. It could also come in the
form of an all professional community. The members of the cited examples organized themselves into a
community to work for a common goal.
The education, religious, military, business, youth, men and health sectors, the media and any
professional aggrupation are also examples of the sectoral community.

4. Global community
This is a community comprised of people from all over the world but seemingly close with each other
despite the distance. They are connected with each other through technology-based means of communication.

These people are economically, socially and politically interdependent. They are not structurally together but
through modern telecommunications they are able to institutionalize a set of ethics which they are bound to
7
follow to promote mutual respect necessary for the global governance.

B. According to the Setting, structure and community processes.

1. Rural community
In the state of nature, rural communities are those located in the more remote areas which have
barely been adulterated with the effects of modernization The main socioeconomic activities are centered on
agriculture and the cultural orientation of the people remain indigenous. Further, personal level of interaction
and relationships among the people obtain. In terms of the physical structure, there are relatively enough
open spaces, high-rising and modern infrastructures are a rarity, and the adverse effects of industrialization
are hardly experienced. Provisions are of abundance. Distractions are perceived as natural occurrence and
whatever human-initiated disturbance is perceived as a bad omen, thus, the community is on the look-out for
such incidents. Social control is in the relaxed mode as the people are bent on adhering to the normative
behavior standards. Socialization is at its best because it is in the rural communities where the transmission of
indigenous culture is very evident and basic education of the people is sufficient enough. They may not be as
knowledgeable but they are kept informed. Life is at its simplest in the rural communities, where the standard
of living may not be that high but the quality of life, is most valued.
Furthermore, a rural community is one where people enjoy low cost of living because practically, the
basic necessities are within your reach. Though food may not be highly processed, fruits, vegetables, meat
and fish are at their best as they are freshly harvested or butchered. Lastly, there is a relatively low population
density because, as mentioned earlier, a rural community is has all the space the people would be needing
and houses or buildings are not built so close to each other, and logically, the community members also live a
house apart from each other.

gm700203516-129602967)

Image 1. Sample image of a Rural Community

2. Sub-urban community
Another type of community according to this classification is the suburban community which is
described as having a relatively bigger population when compared with rural, exposed to the effects of
modernization with particular reference to technology, culturally- adaptive and adoptive to the current trends,
economic activities of the people are somewhat influenced by globalization, the geography and topography are
gradually changing, interaction and socialization is slowly shifting to a less personal level, economic

development is by half, anchored upon industrialization, social control is getting into the nerves of the
8
leadership, more prone to distractions and disturbances and the effects of modern technology is more evident.

In addition, according to www.tn.gov, suburban communities are “lower density areas that separate
residential and commercial areas from one another. They are either part of an urban community or exist as a
separate residential community within commuting distance of a city.” Basing from this qualification, the situs of
a suburban community is just outside a major city, where the residents can readily enjoy the perks of living in a
city because of the proximity of their place to the city.

3. Urban Community
Of the three types under this classification, the urban community is the most dynamic. Why so? This
is prompted by the community’s total immersion with modernization. There is a dramatic increase in the
population which is now comprised of a more diverse nature of people, and these people come from practically
undetermined places. This results to high density of population as houses and buildings may be built alongside
each other, therefore, logically, there shall be an elbow-to-elbow kind of movement- a highly-crowded
scenario. Criminality and other destructive and disturbing activities could be at its high due to the large
population where social control may be marred by some glitch while being implemented. Socialization and
interaction is at its peak sans personal attachment. The cultural orientation of the people may become
adulterated or may be enhanced with the introduction of heterogenic culture. High standard of living obtains
but may not have a high valuation to life. Physical structure-wise, the community is more prone to disasters
owing to the higher level of community dynamics brought about by the influx of modern technology and the
unprecedented migration of people from many other places. The construction of high-rising buildings may
adversely affect the geography and topography of the community, but these edifices are salient features of an
urban community. Some other problems may be encountered by the people in urban communities like
pollution, limited space, unemployment and others.
In urban communities, there is much of mobility and transiency where, because the people become
remiss of the concept of permanency, community members are expected to leave, and would probably be
replaced by another. And, it is also worth mentioning, that life and lifestyle in an urban community is
regimented, where time becomes a challenge which the people have to keep up with. Last, but not the least,
segmentation of personality (www.yourarticlelibrary.com) occurs in the urban community. What does this
presuppose? Since in an urban community, the prioritized group is the secondary group, social contacts matter
to suffice self-vested interests and selfish motives. That when one is no longer instrumental to the satisfaction
of a need, the person is no longer treated with significance.

C. According to Purpose (of organization) (www.feverbee.com/)

1. Community of Interest
“Community of people who share the same interest or passion.” However, of the five types under this
classification, the interest community could be the most difficult to organize due to the possible mental
competition of the members. This could be attributed to a possible overflow of ideas in the databank of the
prospective members that in the very offing, there could already be clashing of the minds. On the lighter side,
the interest community could prove to be one of the best because the prospective members are all expected to
be focused on the community objective as it according to what interests them the most.

2. Community of Action
“Community of people trying to bring about change.” A very dynamic aggrupation. This is the type of
community which is geared towards employing a concerted endeavor to bring about change not only in the
community but which shall extend to the macrolevel of the society and the world as well. One of the expected
activities is the sharing among the community members of the best practices to be used in achieving the goals.

3. Community of Place
“Community of people brought together by geographic boundaries.” This is the type of community
where the people who live near each other are, by instinct, bonded together to form themselves into a socio-
political and socioeconomic aggrupation. One thing notable about this type of group is the high valuation for
the other community members and strong support is extended to each other whatever the adversities are.
Lastly, it is under this type of community where events, issues and problems on the local level are the primary
concerns of the members.

4. Community of Practice.
“Community of people in the same profession or undertake the same activities.” This type of community
is a classic example of a formal community like that of lawyers, medical practitioners, teachers, criminologists,
etc., where the organization and establishment follows all the formalities; where the activities to be undertaken
must follow a documented plan of action, with all the formalities in every procedure particularly in the
implementation of the community initiatives; and where there must be strict compliance to the normative
standard of behavior set forth by the community in general.

5. Community of Circumstance
“Community of people brought together by external events or situations.” This type of community
takes the informal manner of aggrupation. Why? This is so because the community members came together
by the accidental similarity of circumstances or events or situations they found themselves into. They had to be
bonded together because of the shared need to find a resolution to the challenge/s they are faced with. One
characteristic that is worth noting about this type of community is it allows a large-group discussion of related
matters, sans mental competition.
