Since the first edition of "American Communities" was published in 1878 new Communistic Societies have been established, some of the older ones have ceased to exist, others have been slowly sailing into their last harbor, while still others have undergone such changes that accounts of them written so long ago must be regarded as descriptive of their past rath- er than. their present condition; hence the demand for its revision ; and that it might better serve as a book of reference it has been enlarged to include accounts, not only of additional colonies, old and new, based on common property, of importance because of their numbers, principles or special peculiarities, but of many semi-communistic and co-operative societies. This enlargement appeared the more advisable be- cause of the regrettable destruction, a few years ago, by the fire that reduced to ashes the publishing house of J. B. Lippincott & Co., of the

  • Policyspace Is an Empirical Platform, Adjusted for the Case of 333 Brazilian Municipalities Located in the 46 Population Concentration Areas
    formato 16x23 cm 8mm de lombada The future is not predictable. It is created. Ipea’s mission Contextually and gradually, with small advances, Enhance public policies that are essential to Brazilian development understandings and adaptations, corrections upon by producing and disseminating knowledge and by advising corrections. The future is negotiated – and emerges the state in its strategic decisions. as an inexorable result of social, institutional and political interactions. Public policies – as a tenuous concept of planning, a vehicle of societal interests – balance, evaluate, contain visions (predominantly public) that guide, direct, drive optimal social development. Future is a scenario of uncertainties. A scenario of social complexity in which policy proposals are made by the society, guided by the managers. Public managers, who seek to mediate policies and their multiplicity of eects, typical eects of complex systems, to the maximum extent that circumstances allow. Given this context, the purpose of this book is to oer an additional tool of modeling to society in general and to managers of the res publica in particular. Not only conceptually, abstractly – but as a concrete tool, available and adaptable. In fact, PolicySpace is an empirical platform, adjusted for the case of 333 Brazilian municipalities located in the 46 population concentration areas. This set of metropolises is home to most of Brazil’s socio-eco- nomic strength, but also its greatest challenges. The core idea of PolicySpace’s platform is to allow the analysis of alternatives – many alternatives – for the implementation of ex-ante public policies. That is, to anticipate, circumstantially, eects, developments, future results of changes, in the present; to analyze interactions between portions of society and institutions, in space and time.

Spencer Fluhman olly Knight's health was failing as she and her family trudged toward Pwestern Missouri. Having accepted Joseph Smith Jr. as God's prophet on earth, the Knights left their Colesville, New York, farm and joined with other Mormon converts at Kirtland, Ohio, in 1831. Finding a brief respite there, they again set out, this time for the city of "Zion" that Joseph Smith said they would help build in Jackson County, Missouri. Worried that Polly was too ill to complete the trek, her family considered stopping in hopes she might recover. But "she would not consent to stop traveling," recalled her son Newell: "Her only, or her greatest desire was to set her feet upon the land of Zion, and to have her body interred in that land." Fearing the worst, Newell bought lumber for a coffin in case she expired en route.

Thus these manuscripts - Ministerial and Family journals, yearbooks, diaries, Covenants, hymnals, are invaluable documents illuminating the concepts and views of Shakers on their religion, theology, music, spiritual life and visions, and their concerns and activities in community organization, membership, daily events, production of goods, financial transactions between Shaker societies and the outside world, their crafts and industries.

  • Communitarianism
    COMMUNITARIANISM “So long as the past and present are outside one another, knowledge of the past is not of much use in the problems of the present. But suppose the past lives on in the present: suppose, though encapsulated in it, and at first sight hidden beneath the present’s contradictory and more prominent features, it is still alive and active; then the historian may very well be related to the non-historian as the trained woodsman is to the ignorant traveller.” — R.G. Collingwood, AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1939, page 100 1535 The Order of the Ursulines was founded by Angela Merici in Brescia. 1747 The society known as “Shakers” or “Shaking Quakers” was formed. HDT WHAT? INDEX COMMUNITARIANISM COMMUNITARIANISM 1768 July 6, day: At the Ephrata Community in what is now Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, Johann Conrad Beissel died. He had been born in Eberbach in Germany and had come to Pennsylvania in 1720, and in 1732 had established his semi-monastic community at Ephrata, known as “Camp of the Solitary,” a community which by the time of his death had come to include not only a monastery, “Brother House,” but also a convent, “Sister House.” COMMUNITARIANISM In Providence, Rhode Island, Moses Brown wrote to document to his brothers formally, that “my health is so impaired as to be much injured by a close attention to any kind of business, and I have concluded to leave the care and charge of my part of the business of the company this summer and fall, among you.” THE BROWN BROTHERS 2 Copyright 2013 Austin Meredith HDT WHAT?

  • The Domestic Terrorist Threat: Background and Issues for Congress
    The Domestic Terrorist Threat: Background and Issues for Congress Jerome P. Bjelopera Specialist in Organized Crime and Terrorism January 17, 2013 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R42536 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress The Domestic Terrorist Threat: Background and Issues for Congress Summary The emphasis of counterterrorism policy in the United States since Al Qaeda’s attacks of September 11, 2001 (9/11) has been on jihadist terrorism. However, in the last decade, domestic terrorists—people who commit crimes within the homeland and draw inspiration from U.S.-based extremist ideologies and movements—have killed American citizens and damaged property across the country. Not all of these criminals have been prosecuted under terrorism statutes. This latter point is not meant to imply that domestic terrorists should be taken any less seriously than other terrorists. The Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) do not officially list domestic terrorist organizations, but they have openly delineated domestic terrorist “threats.” These include individuals who commit crimes in the name of ideologies supporting animal rights, environmental rights, anarchism, white supremacy, anti-government ideals, black separatism, and anti-abortion beliefs. The boundary between constitutionally protected legitimate protest and domestic terrorist activity has received public attention. This boundary is especially highlighted by a number of criminal cases involving supporters of animal rights—one area in which specific legislation related to domestic terrorism has been crafted. The Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act (P.L. 109-374) expands the federal government’s legal authority to combat animal rights extremists who engage in criminal activity.

Gathering into gospel order: the Shaker approach to design Gathering into gospel order: the Shaker approach to design A consideration of Shaker-made architecture, furniture and commercial wares - items of remarkable beauty, durability, economy and practicality - inevitably leads to one conclusion: the story of Shaker design is inseparable from the Shakers' identity as a distinct cultural group living by choice apart from 'The World', as they called secular society. When what they sought was not available, they invented what they needed and, in fact, applied for patents for some of their inventions.
