Dynamics and Community Action in
Relation to Applied Social Sciences and the
Learner’s Future Career Options

Discover
It is said that the only time that we realize who and what we are is when we have
immersed ourselves within the community, that we would not discover our essential us
unless we mingle with other people. So, what is this community? What are its peculiarities
and how are these connected to our chosen future careers and what could be their
relationship to applied social sciences?

Nature of Community

2
According to Kathleen M. MacQueen et.al, (2001, American Journal of Public
Health), a community is a “group of people with diverse characteristics who are linked by
social ties, share common perspectives, and engage in joint action in geographical locations
or settings.” Add to this the definition given by the Business Dictionary which states that a
community is a “self-organized network of people with common agenda, cause, or interest,
who collaborate by sharing ideas, information, and other resources.” Lastly, Chavis and Lee
(2015) wrote that a community is both a feeling and a set of relationships among people.

If we are to sum it up, a community refers to the people who live and coexist with
each other and who share a lot of things in common. Despite the fact that these people
possess characteristics different from each other, there could be a meeting of minds at
certain points like their ideas over matters involving their coexistence, about their cultural
perspectives or regarding their established relationships, or the like. And these people have
built relationships anchored from trust, love, and sense of belongingness, compassion and
responsibility.

There is but one thing trivial about communities and this concerns the territorial or
geographical setting. Not in all instances do the people who comprise a community live close
to each other, because in some scenarios there could be people who live miles away from
each other but they still consider themselves as belonging to one and the same community.
(More discussion about this in the succeeding learning materials.)

Before we shall take the other integrative concepts of community, let us summarize
the peculiar features (as culled from www.yourarticlelibrary.com/society) of community.
They are the following:

1. An aggrupation of people, without regards to their demographic accounts, and the


size, where a community is either small or large, is immaterial for the organization of the
community.
2. If it is a national community, the second important element is the definite locality
where the members live in.
3. Community sentiment which is shared by the community members, which
pertains to the shared feelings of the people towards any endeavor involving the community
in general.
4. Naturality which pertains to the fact that a community is organized as naturally as
can be, that it becomes instinctive among the members of the community to come together
to form a socio-political aggrupation organization.
5. Permanence refers to the permanent nature of the aggrupation in terms of its
existence and the physical location of their territory. A community is not as temporary as a
crowd.
6. Similarity has reference to the cultural details, historical accounts, and normative
standard of behavior, usages and the like which are common to the members of the
community.
7. Organized social life which means that all aspects of the social life of the people are
included in the community life, and with this essence, a community is the miniature of the
society.
8. Wider ends which refers to the different objectives that the community is geared at
and not focused ln just one end or purpose.

Community action
According to Local Government Association (info@local.gov.uk ), community action
is any activity that increases the understanding, engagement and empowerment of
communities in the design and delivery of local services. It includes a broad range of
activities which are sometimes called ‘social action' or ‘community engagement’. As per this
definition, we are made to understand that community action is in itself the sum total of the

3
collective endeavor of the people. An example of which is capacitating the women in the
production of face masks using indigenous or local materials. In the said sample activity, the
women would not only be trained but they will be empowered- empowered in the sense that
these women will be given an employment opportunity not just for a day or a week but
probably for months or even a year or years. A mere clean-up drive or tree-planting would be
a community activity but it lacks a long- range empowerment, therefore it does not answer to
the call of a community action.
Community action programs bear different objectives. They also differ in terms of the
involvement of the people, with particular reference to the identified sector and the
identified officials and the program focal person as well. And, there is a variation of kinds of
activities, like the conduct of leadership training or literacy program or health awareness or
food preservation training-workshop and the like. Bottom line, whatever the activity is, all of
these community action programs are geared towards engagement and empowerment of the
people and these same people shall be capacitated with the skills of planning, designing and
delivery of local services.

Purposes of Community Action


Just like any other endeavor, a community action has its purposes and they are as
follows:
1. To help and encourage the children and the youth.
The base of any community is the children’s group and the youth sector. It is
incumbent then in the community leaders to build a strong base to attain the goals of
development. In so doing, community initiatives must be extended to these groups to
capacitate and empower them so that they would be enjoined to participate in community-
based activities. Building a strong and capacitated base could be done through community
action activities like literacy program, leadership trainingworkshop, or any program that
promotes mental health, and the like, where children of school age and the so-called out-of-
school youth are to be encouraged to participate to hone their reading and leadership skills
which they could use later on to be of help to the community.
2. To help and support the marginalized sector.
The so-called marginalized sector of the community must not be forgotten nor
disregarded. This sector should not be mocked as a liability of the community, rather,
should be regarded as a moving force for the community to endeavor towards development.
This sector must be extended all the help they need and that the community is able to give to
them. The community would find itself lagging behind if the issues of the marginalized sector
are not properly addressed. Also, disparity and social inequity could mar good community
relations. This sector has reference to the impoverished members of the community, the
members of the indigenous people’s groups, or even the women sector. Through community
action activities, these identified sectors in the community would become the participants to
training programs or workshops to help them be emancipated from their pitiful plight.
3. To invigorate and honor the elderly.
There should be community action activities to be designed and implemented to
make the elderly feel and realize that they have not been stripped off of their place in the
community. It should be understood that the older a person becomes, the lesser the
activities are, therefore, the so-called elderly, colloquially called the senior citizens, tend to
be homebody and immobile and this plight reduce them to debasement. For this reason,
community action planners must also consider programs to elicit the youth in them,
community initiatives to revive their stamina and vigor, activities that would make them feel
they are still partners in developmental programs of the community and activities that would
revive and sustain the wisdom of being the elders in the community.
4. To strengthen the community, as a whole.
A requisite to the strengthening of the community would be a scenario where the
children and youth have been molded so as to be partners in communitybuilding, when the
marginalized and streamlined sectors of the community are recognized and sustained and
when the older members of the community are energized and honored. Strength of the

4
empowered members of the community, from the children through the youth to the elderly.
It goes without saying that no matter how good and efficient the leaders are if the people
living in it are in a pitiful state, everything would be of no use. Strength is determined not
only with the number of population or the size of the territory but with the empowerment
exuded by all of the members of said community. The human resource of the community is
more that the physical and geographical make-up. At the end of the day, when the
community folks have all been vitalized, the entire community becomes dynamic.

Importance of Community Action


Accordingly, community action poses importance to the dynamism of the
people. Community action is implemented not just out of the whims of the leaders
or just for a show, rather, it is undergone for a cause. Because of this ,the
significance of a community action could be broken down into the following:

Community action is about putting communities at the heart of their own local
services. (https://brainly.ph/question/152455#)
This means that the people in the community are motivated in making the
community’s objectives and needs as their focus and they themselves will be the
ones taking charge of the services to satisfy such. The community members are the
participants to any community action initiative and whatever and however they are
capacitated, they themselves will be the ones who shall deliver the identified service
and gain from it.

Building community and social capacity.


This presupposes that community action activities would help develop skills
which would capacitate the people for any endeavor while they would be intimated
with the needed knowledge and ideas. The skills which the people would be
capacitated with shall have a long range effect, meaning, the people could use such
skill in engaging in business, or to earn an income or to capacitate other people.
This way, the people become active participants to the community-building.
As mentioned earlier, it is not capacitating the people for just a day or a week, but
could even be for a lifetime.

Community resilience.
This means that the community could become self-sustaining with the skills
and knowledge they are capacitated with. For instance, the women sector are made
to undergo trainings like basket-weaving or the male sector are given a training on
handicrafts production using local materials, then the community is able to support
itself economically. When the community becomes a self-sustaining entity, then the
community as a whole shall be able to withstand whatever problems, difficulties and
issues that will get in their way.

Community dynamics
What is meant by community dynamics? What has it to do with the
community? Does it have any significance at all in community initiatives and
community development programs?

Earlier, we have already defined the concept of ‘community’, so let us also


give the nature of ‘dynamics’ and in that case, we shall be able to coin a working
definition for the concept community dynamics. According to Oxford Languages and
Google, “dynamics refer to the forces or properties which stimulate growth,
development, or change within a system process.” Basing from this definition, we
could deduce that the word dynamics entails vigor, energy, stamina, strength

5
enthusiasm, and any other positive stimulus within the person and beyond him, so
as to bring about growth and development or any welcome change in the person.

Community dynamics then would refer to a process of change in the midst of


the people in the community, powered by the unequalled vigor and enthusiasm of
the same people. Further, there shall exist community dynamics when the people
are capacitated as well. Going back to the scenarios cited earlier, we can say that as
a consequence of then of an invigorated elders, empowered children and youth and
marginalized sector and a completely strengthened community, community
dynamics become a reality. No vacuum left to allow any form of negativity to rule
over the people. All that the people would manifest are energy and enthusiasm. All
of which would refer to community dynamics.

For a more thorough understanding of what community dynamics is, let us take a
look at the indicators of its significance, which is summarized as follows:

1. Community dynamics allows the members of the community to think


creatively and act strategically towards the achievement of community- set
goals.
When people are invigorated and full of enthusiasm and stamina, the better
their mental set becomes and they could conceptualize more feasible and practical
plan of action as a matter of keeping it up with the developmental goals of their
community. The same vigor, stamina and enthusiasm will enable them to work on
the implementation of the conceptualized community initiatives.

2. With community dynamics at hand, the quality of living of the more


vulnerable sectors of the community is alleviated.
One of the first targets of community initiatives is to secure the status of the
impoverished and other marginalized sectors of the community. Thus, if the more
fortunate community members are not energetic enough to work for social change
therein, then, the streamlined sectors would remain in the lowest ebb of the
community.

3. Community dynamics allows the people to develop a good insight of how


and what they feel about the place they live in.
Knowing, appreciating and understanding the very physical conditions in the
place where you live in would make you develop good attitude or as we colloquially
say, good vibes, towards the community. This would be done only when you are
interested about your community; when you want to get involved in any undertaking
of your community; when you have innate concern about your community.

Community Dynamics and Applied Social Sciences


We have learned in Disciplines and Ideas in the Applied Social Sciences that there are
three areas of concern, namely Counselling, Social Work and Communication. In all three
areas, the practitioner needs to have a background about the personality that makes up a
community she is bound to work for and work with. Because if one has not experienced
being immersed with a certain community previously, she would not be in the know on how
to deal with the energy, stamina and enthusiasm of your clientele. Having a feel of
community dynamism would capacitate say for instance a social worker to effectively and
efficiently dispense of her job in the field dealing with the marginalized sector as her
clientele, or a police officer in dealing with offenders or a teacher dealing not only with her
students but with the stakeholders as well.

Community Action and Applied Social Sciences

6
Most of the community action programs designed and implemented are related to the
tasks of Social Workers, Communication practitioners or Teachers or Counsellors and the
like. Examples of which are Reading Program for the Children and the Youth, Leadership
Training and a lot more. It goes without saying then that community action and Applied
Social Sciences work together and would provide the appropriate training for the would-be-
graduates of college programs aligned with Applied Social Sciences.

Career Choices and Community Dynamics and Community Action


As per observation, most graduates of the Humanities and Social Sciences strand,
venture into college programs like Psychology, Education, Criminology, Communication Arts
and Bachelor of Arts courses. And if you look deeper into the nature of work one has to
engage with after graduation, you are right, the job calls for some skills and knowledge of
community dynamics and community action. For instance, as cited earlier, as an Education
graduate one would not only be charged with teaching the learners but to become the
guidance counsellor giving advices to the students and even the parents or go for home
visitations maybe bringing with her some provisions for the concerned student.

Lesson
Community using different perspective,

2 e.g., social sciences, institutions, civil


society, and local/grassroots level

By now you already have an idea with regards the nature of community from
the general social perspective. As mentioned earlier, the concept shall in a while be
described according to how it is viewed by the social sciences, the different
institutions, by the members of the grassroots and by the civil society.

Social sciences and community


As you have learned in your Disciplines and Ideas in the Social Sciences back
in Grade 11, when you talk of social sciences, you are referring to the different
disciplines under its wings like Anthropology, Economics, History, Political Science,
Psychology, and Sociology. For purposes of discussion, we shall be taking Political
Science and Sociology, separately. From the general social science perspective, a
community is a group of people who are connected and related by virtue of their
historical and cultural beginnings and experiences, and identified through their
geographical and ethnical attributes. Considering this definition, it could be seen as
a historical and an anthropological perspective because the community involves the
beginnings of the people as well as the traditions and practices which are common
to them. A classic example of which is the entire community (society) of the Filipino
people as we are bonded by a common history and culture.

Political science sees community as the “polis (state) as composed of various


classes each performing roles and functions in pursuit of communal goals (Plato),
and according to Aristotle, he “emphasized the role of political institutions in
maintaining and sustaining order within a community.” (www.slideshare.net,2018).
This perspective gives us the idea that a community is seen as the proper venue
where the roles and functions of the members of the different social classes are

7
realized and such role-taking must be looked into by the concerned political
institution to sustain order therein. From the micro level, we could take the
barangay as our best example to elucidate this definition of community.

From the point-of-view of sociology, in the Gemeinschaft level, a community


is an aggrupation of people with close bonding, where kinship prevails while taking
care of the engagement and empowerment of the people. In the Gesselschaft level, a
community is seen as an association of loosely-bonded individuals driven by the
pursuit of self-sustenance while working for a common objective for the group.
Gemeinschaft is synonymous with our rural community, while Gesselschaft is the
city or urban community.

Institutions and Community


When we talk of institutions, we are referring to the social institutions, the
religious, educational, economic, even the medical institution and the mass media.
From their perspectives, community is described as an aggrupation of people, but
they just vary on the objectives for coming together and what binds the members. In
the institutions of religious faith, the members are bonded together because of the
shared creed, as well as their commitment towards their faith. They also go by the
norms, roles and values which accompany their shared faith. Their common
objective is to empower people through religion.

From the perspective of the members of the academe, the school as a


community is organized to satisfy the main objective of nurturing learners to
empower them and to promote and implement the educational goals of the state.
And the members of the educational community observe common protocol and they
have role-sharing as well. As for the economic institutions, like the manufacturing
industries, they are viewed to exist with a societal or community-like personality
with the common objective of producing tangible goods for the consumers and in the
process, they are bound by similar restrictions, adhere to same regulations and
answer to responsibilities akin to that of the others.

A hospital, on the other hand, is also viewed as separate community because


it is comprised of medical and para-medical practitioners who help satisfy the
medical needs and issues of the people.

Civil Society and Community


“Civil society commonly embraces a diversity of spaces, actors and
institutional forms, varying in their degree of formality, autonomy and power.”
(Kamensky 2008) Basing from this definition of civil society, it is understood tht it
includes people’s organizations, charities, nongovernmental organizations, women’s
organizations, professional aggrupation, community-based organizations and
others. Civil society adherents view community as “being largely comprised of
voluntary civil and social organizations and institutions that act collectively or
individually on behalf of their larger community.” (Kamensky, 2008). Taking it from
the micro perspective, according to the civil society perception, a community then
brings together voluntarily individuals who share the same interests, sentiments, or
needs, bound by common values, roles and norms in the pursuit of shared
objectives for the members.

8
The members of this nongovernmental organization are not altogether
geographically located rather they come from different municipalities of La Union.
They were brought together by a common cause or objective which are to promote
women empowerment and child growth and welfare
(https://m.facebook.com/LaUnionVibrantWomen/ ). Taking the specific example in
the LUVWI, this nongovernmental organization may have viewed the community as
a an avenue to extend help to a specific sector which is perceived to be in need of
help.

The grassroots level and the community


According to Oxford Languages and Google, grassroots refer to the “ ordinary
people regarded as the main body of the organization’s membership.” And as per
Vocabulary.com Dictionary, grassroots “is at the most basic level of something,
down there in the dirt with the roots of an idea or activity.” As suggested by the
aforementioned definitions, grassroots level should be understood as referring to the
lesser fortunate members of a community, or the common people or the farmers or
the fisher folks who seem to just be identified with the plow or the fishing net
because they are the people considered as the ones literally down there and gets to
be dirtied as they toil with what they best do. Aside from those identified with the
agricultural
sector, we could also identify those people engaged in the blue-collar jobs as they
are a well branded as ordinary beings.
According to brainly.ph, (2017) the grassroots view community as “not just a
network of socialization but it is a relationship between people that bring each and
everyone together in a way that allow them to do things they cannot or could not be
done because of isolation.” From this description of community, we can infer that
the grassroots look upon the other members of the community for dependence and
protection. That because they seem to be the neglected sector, logically they would
seek for attention from the more able and more capacitated individuals. When they
find people, who are willing to cater to their needs, then it would only be then that
they can say that they belong. As a result, having a feel of a sense of belongingness
would complete their perception of what a community is.
