Cull: Choosing Well - Brad A. Lancaster - Bog

How does one make good decisions? What shape of life emerges from choosing well? In this careful book, Brad Lancaster gathers ideas about human meaning to frame "kithdom," a political theory that encourages meaningful life together in interwoven circles of friends. Cull offers insight about peace, humility, friendship, family, and consensus. Lancaster helps one get clear about depopulation, shared meaning, and pot holes in human thinking. Cull suggests simple rules for living that satisfy our hunger for deliberated togetherness. Cull asks all to dwell on unborn generations and the legacy we are fashioning. Cull encourages a communications Commons, freely available to all, which contains the sum of human knowledge and skills. Ultimately, the author asks us to keep experimenting with forms of life until we find ourselves, with our friends, flourishing in meaningful shared existence. Co-housing groups, ecovillages, kibbutzim, intentional communities, urban non-residential fellowships, and communes of every sensibility will find in Lancaster's book thoughtful help for living in deliberated togetherness. For those of us mired in the urban crush, Cull is a godsend of blunt analysis.
