Description du livre Etat : Gut. Number 2. Source Collective. VIII; 255 Seiten; Illustr.; graph. Darst.; 28 cm. Gutes Exemplar; der illustr. Einband etwas berieben; innen sehr wenige Anstreichungen. - Englisch. - The purpose of Source Catalog is to assist the people challenging outmoded and oppressive institutions. Our role is locating resource tools (groups, strategies, books and films) that will further enable organizations to redesign communities to meet the needs of all people. The catalog does this in four ways: first by clarifying a few of the mechanics and roots of oppression; second by outlining visions of new social/political/economic systems; next suggesting strategies and programs which can begin to move people from what is to what can be; and finally by describing organizations and resources presently 'working' in all the above areas. CATALOG STRUCTURE AND MECHANICS The "PROBLEM" . . . page of each section is a short overview of how a particular aspect of the housing system operates. This is intended to put the struggle of the organizations described in the section in a working context; materials from which we took our indictments in most cases were from the groups described in the section. By no means a complete analysis, the problem page highlights basic contradictions. The "PLATFORM" . . . page is an outline of some of the goals different organizations are working toward to change the housing system. They are interim demands around which organizing work can begin plus a few visions for building new institutions. The "PROGRAM" . . . page lists some of the many tactics and methods used by groups fighting around these issues. It is organized in ascending complexity of action to offer alternative forms of action, not to suggest priority or a necessary order. GROUPS. . . in the catalog, like an iceberg's tip, are merely the surface of an immense housing movement in America. Its strength cannot be judged by the quantity here or even the "quality," for many significant forces and actions go unrecorded. We did not mean to be a complete directory or even take the enormous time to be politically or geographically proportionate. Source is not an encyclopedia but a struggle in action. For this reason and speed in research, some group descriptions may be incomplete, outdated or misrepresentative of an organization's emphasis or political orientation. This is because our information comes from one person, in most cases, or is drawn from the organization's publications which are sometimes outdated. We have catagorized many groups with varying political motivations, commitment, analysis and militancy together. Our purpose is to suggest a broad range of possible actions while putting them in the context of far reaching social change.
