Abstract:
Excerpts from the report Foreword: This is a report on one of six communities which were studied contemporaneously by six different participant observers or field workers during 1940 Each study was sufficiently independent of the other five to make separate treatment and publication desirable. The reader will gain full understanding of the findings however, only when he has read the reports of the six studies as a group. Although this report is entitled Culture of a Contemporary Rural Community Sublette Kansas, it is in many ways not a community report. Many of the data presented are on a county basis so the study reported comes nearer being an area study with special emphasis upon community stability and instability. It will probably be evident to the reader that this was the only approach that could be used in an area where secondary group relationships are in many ways more dominant than primary group relationships. This study however followed the same categories of observation used in the other studies of the series.
