It is the crisis that everyone feels but that has gone
unnamed. We see the pieces: families disintegrating;
communities in chaos; businesses losing the trust of
customers and employees; political and religious discourse
that sows dysfunction and divide. Yet until now, no one has
connected the dots that reveal the larger narrative. Our
broken relationships have a death grip on economic,
political, and social advancements that capitalism,
democracy, social programs, and tax policy have been unable
to break. Cumulatively this crisis feeds an emerging caste
system: Individuals and organizations that possess superior
relationships have, while those with deteriorating
relationships are destined to have not. In This Land of
Strangers, Robert Hall lays the crisis bare, and you will be
shocked at the magnitude of destruction he reveals. Hall’s best-selling business book, The Streetcorner Strategy
for Winning Local Markets, helped spawn the customer
relationship management movement. Now, with deep passion
and insight borne from three decades of study, he widens the
lens to look at the breadth of our relational decline and
the societal trends that got us here. Focusing on four key
domains—home, work, politics, and faith—he presents
wide-ranging research that explores the unraveling of our
life-giving relationships and the attendant costs. He
debunks the assumption that we can build better lives and a
stronger society on crumbling relationships. With engaging narrative style and stories, Hall looks at
modern life through the prism of relationships. He
challenges readers to embrace three aims that will reverse
the forces that gave birth to today’s land of strangers to
usher in a new era—the Age of Relationship.
