Klappentext zu „When the Military Moves Out “
To understand how base closings, as part of the BaseRealignment and Closure (BRAC) process, affect thelocal community (the place), as well as the characterof the place, an ethnographic case study wasundertaken in the community surrounding Fort RitchieArmy Garrison, slated for closure as part of the 1995BRAC round. Interwoven with this understanding ofplace are individual stories of those affected by theclosing and how they, based on their relationship tothe place and the meanings they attach to it,responded to the closing and the ensuing reuseprocess. I conducted in-depth interviews, spent timein the community, reviewed archival records, andcollected and analyzed demographic and economic datato quantify some of the social and economic impactson the area over time, and conducted a post hocSocial Impact Assessment. Though this book is thestory of how one community has responded and adjustedto the loss of the military, lessons can be learnedby other communities facing base closings,as well asby federal entities tasked with overseeing andfacilitating the process.
