INSTITUTIONS AND LIFE STYLES WORK PLAN. PHASE I, RESEARCH PLAN

Research plan outlining central institutions most likely to be affected by BART, most feasible for study, and most likely to produce findings of transferability to other settings for policy-related decisions. Second, selected aspects of various kinds of life-styles are reviewed and suggestions and hypotheses presented for further study of both institutions and life-styles (I&LS). The methodologies are designed to inter-connect from different angles in the study of the same problem, with a combination of ethnographic, observational, and survey research supplemented by document monitoring and analysis.
