Absztrakt

Local community as a “paradise lost” is an essential term which is often used in scientific debates, documents and strategies of regional and local development. This phrase has a complex and heterogeneous content that undermines professional communication. The aim of this paper is a short summary of various community interpretations from the viewpoints of minor settlements. Analysing this dynamic term by reviewing sociological resources could facilitate a better understanding of structure and functions of local communities.
