AB - Many researchers have turned to communities for solutions to new problems caused by the radical industrialization and informatization of our society. However, previous community research according to academic discipline (i.e., sociology, geology, local development and engineering), and as such was not based on common conceptual and theoretical foundations, instead focusing on different aspects of communities. In the field of public administration in particular, community research did not gain momentum, despite the increasing importance of community as a tool for solving social problems. This paper makes recommendations for community research in the field of public administration, through explorative meta-analysis on the community studies. The analysis results reveal that papers focusing on community are still rare in public administration compared to other fields, they used qualitative methods more than quantitative approaches to methodology, and more descriptive studies have been published rather than theoretical studies. These results imply that in order to vitalize community study in public administration, a theoretical approach is required, and quantitative research focusing on theoretically constructed variables should be conducted.
