  • Duane Elgin Endorsements for Choosing Earth “Choosing Earth Is the Most Important Book of Our Time
    CHOOSING EARTH Humanity’s Great Transition to a Mature Planetary Civilization Duane Elgin Endorsements for Choosing Earth “Choosing Earth is the most important book of our time. To read and dwell within it is an awakening experience that can activate both an ecological and spiritual revolution.” —Jean Houston, PhD, Chancellor of Meridian University, philosopher, author of The Possible Human, Jump Time, Life Force and many more. “A truly essential book for our time — from one of the greatest and deepest thinkers of our time. Whoever is concerned to create a better future for the human family must read this book — and take to heart the wisdom it offers.” —Ervin Laszlo is evolutionary systems philosopher, author of more than one hundred books including The Intelligence of the Cosmos and Global Shift. “This may be the perfect moment for so prophetic a voice to be heard. Sobered by the pandemic, we are recognizing both the fragility of our political arrangements and the power of our mutual belonging. As Elgin knows, we already possess the essential ingredient —our capacity to choose.” —Joanna Macy, author of Active Hope: How to Face the Mess We're in Without Going Crazy, is root teacher of the Work That Reconnects and celebrated in A Wild Love for the World: Joanna Macy and the Work of Our Time. “Duane Elgin has thought hard — and meditated long — about what it will take for humanity to evolve past our looming ecological bottleneck toward a future worth building. There is wisdom in these pages to light the way through our dark and troubled times.” —Richard Heinberg is one of the world’s foremost advocates for a shift away from reliance on fossil fuels; author of Our Renewable Future, Peak Everything, and The End of Growth.

  • Socialism of Our Country Is a Socialism of Our Style As
    SOCIALISM OF OUR COUNTRY IS A SOCIALISM OF OUR STYLE AS THE EMBODIMENT OF THE JUCHE IDEA Speech Delivered to the Senior Officials of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea December 27,1990 KIM JONG IL Today, owing to the vicious anti-socialist moves of the imperialists, a sharp confrontation is going on between socialism and imperialism on the international arena. Owing to the counterrevolutionary offensive of the imperialists and the advocates of the restoration of the bourgeois system, in some countries socialism has suffered setbacks and their society is in the turmoil of total destruction. Our socialism, however, is advancing dynamically along the road of victory and displaying its advantage and viability to the full, unaffected by any unscrupulous schemes of the imperialists and reactionaries. Our people cherish a great self-confidence and pride in having built a most advantageous socialist society, while their foreign friends are envious of Korea, saying that socialism of Korea is the best. As our socialism demonstrates its viability more, the imperialists are frantically intensifying their attack on our country and the advocates of the return to the bourgeois system are disparaging us, on the grounds that we have not accepted their perestroika policy. Now that the imperialists and the advocates of the revival of the bourgeois system are making frantic attempts to disparage our socialism, we must bring the advantage and viability of socialism into fuller play while, at the same time, giving wide publicity to the superiority of our socialism. As different hues of opportunism are distorting the socialist idea now, we must launch propaganda about the advantages of socialism, not in a general way, but by explaining the concrete reality of our socialism.

  • Loss and Grieving: Selves Between Autonomy and Dependence
    Loss and Grieving: Selves between Autonomy and Dependence HILDUR KALMAN Spadar-Abdon is the talk of the town–“he acted worse than if he’d lost his wife” (Lidman 374, my translation). Abdon, a character in the heptalogy Jernbanan (The Railroad) that deal with the struggles, hopes and loves of poor farmers, and the colonization of northern Sweden, during the nineteenth and early 20th century, is grieving the death of his horse, Stina. His grief is made more bitter by the fact that he let himself be fooled into allowing her to pull such a heavy load that her heart failed. But is it possible to grieve incorrectly? This may be just a fictional example, but nevertheless: Isn’t it only the person who has suffered it who can truly know the meaning of a loss? Literature and everyday life present numerous examples of how grief is experienced as a tension between an individual’s own feelings and what are recognized as socially acceptable or reasonable ways of mourning. For instance, an ethnological study focused on the ceremonies and expressions of emotion at funerals of homosexual men during the late 20th century in Sweden, a period when many young gay men died of AIDS, reports that some of these funerals were described by observers as deviating from prevailing norms, as “spectacles,” as more like weddings (Svensson 2007). What makes for acceptable grieving does not seem to be at stake only in the case of non- normative or socially unrecognized relations. A recurrent theme in the stories of surviving PhaenEx 7, no.2 (fall/winter 2012): 1-27 © 2012 Hildur Kalman - 2 - PhaenEx relatives in a Swedish ethnological study of grieving processes was that people around them seemed unable to cope with their grief and their ways of grieving (Lundgren 72, 78-80).
