Description:Excerpt from Town and Country Relations: Proceedings of the Fourth National Country Life Conference, St. Charles Hotel New Orleans, La 1921 The direction of attention in this meeting of the Association marks an epoch in the history of rural sociology in this country. It is especially significant in the light of the traditional point of view. It is the result, no doubt, of what might be called the discovery of the village in recent analyses of rural community life, and of the recent concern with problems of business and living rather than exclusively with mere farming as in the past. It indicates, then, the victory of the sociological over the hitherto predominating economic point of view in the field of rural sociology. The Problem The Village And Country Town The emphasis of this meeting is the logical result of former meetings. Problems of rural organization point clearly to the village and country town. The open-country point of view has necessarily to give way, for it must be admitted that it has predominated in the minds of the leading students of American rural life and in the policy of its reformers. Indeed, it might be called the American point of view, for it has undoubtedly been begotten of a rather provincial concentration of attention upon the general form of country life in the United States without much, if any, perspective derived from an historical and comparative study of rural life in the Old World, and in other days than our own. This meeting may make an epoch, then, in freeing us from a merely provincial view, and possibly mark the beginning of a broader study of rural institutions - world-wide in interest. The study of the village may well serve as a common interest if this international outlook should be developed. There is every practical sanction for such an outlook in view of the world problems of rural life that lie at the basis of current reconstruction.
