Prefigurative Politics
Author: Paul Raekstad
Publisher: Polity
ISBN: 9781509535910
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Many of us wonder what we could possibly do to end oppression, exploitation, and injustice. People have studied revolutions and protest movements for centuries, but few have focused on prefigurative politics, the idea of 'building the new society within the shell of the old'. Fed up with capitalism? Get organised and build the institutions of the future in radical unions and local communities. Tired of politicians stalling on climate change? Set up an alternative energy collective. Ready to smash racism and the patriarchy? Root them out in all areas of our lives, not just in 'high politics'. This is the first book dedicated to prefigurative politics, explaining its history and examining the various debates surrounding it. How can collective decision-making be inclusive? In what ways are movements intersectional? Can prefigurative organisations scale up? It is a must-read for students of radical politics, anarchism, and social movements, as well as activists and concerned citizens everywhere.

Building Tomorrow
Author: Paddy Le Flufy
Publisher: First Light Books
ISBN: 1739345215
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
'This important book demonstrates inspiring, practical innovations... and shows how, together, they can weave an entirely new fabric for society.' Jeremy Lent, author of The Patterning Instinct and The Web of Meaning 'A treasure-trove of ideas for practical world-changers.' Prof. Rupert Read, author of Why climate breakdown matters and Co-Director of the Moderate Flank 'A powerful step toward achieving the world we need.' Prof. Nathan Schneider, author of Everything for Everyone: The Radical Tradition that Is Shaping the Next Economy We desperately need a new economic system to help us avert the environmental crisis. This book describes the new system we need, and it shows us how to build it. In Building Tomorrow, Paddy Le Flufy brings together six organisational technologies being developed and implemented by pioneering experts. Each of them fundamentally redesigns a key element of our economic system. Together, they form a holistic vision of a new system – one that can help us avoid the catastrophe looming on the horizon. The book aims directly at creating systemic change by providing people with both a holistic vision of a new economic system and the tools with which to build it. The majority of the writing is about positive real-world examples and potential future developments, which show how people throughout society (such as the readers) can themselves help build the new system. Those that do will be creating a better world. The technologies are the Doughnut development paradigm; the circular economy; the Future Guardian model of governance; regenerative organisational structures; the sovereign money system; and complementary currencies. 'It’s such a relief - and a wonder - to engage with real, deep, granular thinking on exactly how we create systemic change… Essential reading for everyone who needs to know how we move forward.' Manda Scott, author and host of the Accidental Gods podcast

Building Tomorrow's Leaders Today
Author: Michael A. Genovese
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317930924
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 137
Book Description
This book focuses on leadership -- what it is, how it works, and how complex, multi-layered and multi-dimensional it is -- and how it will change in the years ahead. If we are to build tomorrow’s leaders today, we need to anticipate what skills, temperaments, and specific competencies will be valuable as we face future needs. If the past is a predictor of the future, the world of tomorrow will be characterized by rapid change, new technology, greater diversity, increased globalization, and the need for lifelong learning. As a political scientist and presidential scholar, Michael Genovese incorporates a wide range of disciplinary perspectives and research on leadership in this book to give students, practitioners, and leadership scholars a welcome and engaging look to the future.
