Table of Contents
I’ve been reading some more serious things lately. Reading non-fiction and political theory makes me want to write something. I love Lower Heaven and for sure it is all a reflection our our current times and a navigation through them. But then I read Cory Doctorow and other awesome writers and think I am not being direct enough. I want to write something that helps organizers develop their strategies. I know that’s a crowded field, but I have just seen so many well-intentioned people get lost because there are clear paths to diffuse responsibility for the problems of the world, but not to take it, not in a way that makes people feel good, and gives them a clear path to work for.
There is still a lot to learn before I write this eventual book, but I wanted to lay out the Table of Contents for at least, to give a clear path to myself. Here it goes:
Changing (the shape of) the World)
The World is Broken, A Brief Summary
Theory of a Better One
Power Corrupts
Decentralization Fails
Technology Has a Will
Reorienting to a Local Systems View
Asset Mapping
Developing Parallel Institutions and Records
The Tree of Liberty / Regenerative Organizing Practice
