The "Metamorphosis: Transforming the Ties that Bind" Project is an in-depth examination of the transformations of urban community, under the forces of globalization, new communication technologies, and population diversity. We seek to understand this transformation from a new "communication infrastructure perspective" that orients our multi-method research program.
Our mission is to increase awareness of community ties, both formal and informal, so that policy-makers, activists and residents can have effective tools to build urban areas into stronger and more effective communities.
