Chris, I agree with you that believing there is no alternative is, itself, a deadly downer...sure, that's why the view is so pounded into people. > But, my additional point is that the TINA-factor in her outlook is a...

Chris, ** Minor edit at the end of paragraph 4, you might consider a sentence stating that what you are aiming at is the concept "vision". Paragraph 5 starts "Okay, but why explicitly address vision?" and you h...

Thanks Yoann - I appreciate it and am happy to hear that is your reaction to this one - honestly, I think the process in this zgroup works, though I wish more people were getting involved, so that, in time, perhaps other people writing would do th...

Brian, As to describing some implemented aspects of parecon - that has to wait for the vision chapter on economy...but will happen then, and later in strategy sections, too. As to addressing academic debates - for the most ...

Hi Joann, > The way I find these concepts most accessible is when you provide example and especially when you start with them. So for example the Co-reproduction part: I would skip the first paragraph (definition) and start at &q...
