New Heaven, New Earth: Christianity and Anarchism after Empire
On August 15, 2009, Lee Van Ham will speak at the above conference in Memphis, TN. His topic will be...
Seeing What Greenspan Couldn't: A New Partnership Economy
Alan Greenspan, former chair of the Federal Reserve Bank, testified before the U.S. Congress in September, 2008, that no one could have seen the economic collapse coming. Yet, many did. What each of us sees depends on the paradigm or lens through which we are viewing events. The paradigm of this session will be that of a partnership or jubilee economy. We will focus that lens on the importance of the non-imperial structures of the commons and commonwealth as expressed by Jesus, by the followers of the Way (Acts of the Apostles), and by contemporaries building and reclaiming the commons even as empire nibbles and bites at it to privatize it for profit and dominance.
