This excellent 2015 book seems to be underread. No other work I know so integrates economics with ecology and world history, thereby somewhat redefining how we should deal with ecological crisis now. A blend of modified Marxism and Lewis Mumford.
To my surprise it turns out that Taylor's 1911 'The Principles of Scientific Management' is probably the best introduction into understanding management and managers today. And maybe modernity too.
the other good one is this: osf.io/preprints/osf/…
"Centralization and decentralization: The neverending story of separation and betrayal" — just a great paper @ResearchGate: researchgate.net/publication/22…
@daniel_dsj2110 I find this extremely interesting as well as the books you are working on. Waiting for more info.
Autrefois, les écrivains n’avaient pas peur d’être exigeants avec leurs lecteurs. Mais il semble qu’aujourd’hui, nombre d’entre eux craignent de leur demander de faire des efforts. Dostoïevski, Proust, Joyce, Woolf, Mann, Céline, Faulkner, Yourcenar, Gordimer, Eco, Roth, malgré leurs différences immenses, imposaient leur univers avec un rythme, une syntaxe, un vocabulaire. C’était aux lecteurs de s’immerger dans leur prose, de chercher à comprendre, de consulter un dictionnaire pour des mots inconnus. Et ces efforts faisaient précisément partie de la richesse de cette lecture. De nos jours, en dehors de quelques rares exceptions, les écrivains emploient de courtes phrases, souvent au présent, avec des chapitres brefs, des intrigues immédiatement compréhensibles, pour faciliter les partages sur les réseaux sociaux. Autrement dit, c’est aux livres d’aller vers les lecteurs, de s’adapter à eux et de retenir leur attention. Or, on mesure le résultat ! La littérature contemporaine semble avancer sur la pointe des pieds, comme si elle s’excusait d’exister, comme si elle craignait de déranger les lecteurs devenus des « clients » qu’il ne faut surtout ni brusquer ni offenser. Les éditeurs pensent avoir rendu la littérature plus accessible. Ils ont oublié que les grands livres ne demandaient pas aux lecteurs ce qu’ils aimaient déjà. Ils leur donnaient accès à des pensées et des récits qu’ils n’auraient jamais pu imaginer. À force de vouloir séduire tout le monde, on finit un jour par ne plus intéresser personne.
@pieratt I guess that still makes it sound interesting. Thanks =)
@ProfSteveFuller gd to hear it from someone in the know. thanks
@ProfSteveFuller all of that depends on what reality truly is. also on how much one's understanding radically changes in life before any synthesis might be achievable. a Christian synthesis might not be the same as a post-Christian one etc. but it seems a worthy practical and aesthetical ideal.
This should be pretty big news in the world of higher ed. We haven’t focused enough on the way in which private finance is interested in taking over traditional institutions:
New Post: Public benefit with private investment: Lincoln Bishop University to become part of GUS hepi.ac.uk/2026/08/27/pub… hepi.ac.uk/2026/08/27/pub…
sth I should probably read: bostonreview.net/articles/knowl…
@DanielaGabor I loved the articles and look forward to the book.
@ProfSteveFuller that should be achievable. and i think relatively enjoyable =) thanks.
