Marc Dunkelman, Senior Fellow, Clinton Foundation - The Hidden Transformation of American Community

Without any notice, America’s basic community building blocks have dissolved. What Alexis de Tocqueville called the “township” has been replaced. The rhythms that compelled us to understand the people living across town have disappeared. And what is emerging in their place will have a powerful effect on whether we can embrace political compromise and enhance private sector innovation.
