Book Description
Over the year 2020, and in the Corona virus crisis, our global leadership invented three drivers, three themes and slogans- and that are meant to help our world to a better place:1. The Great Reset (due to Corona)2. To Build Back Better3. The Decade of ActionNow, nationally and internationally, governments, politicians, diplomats, institutes, bankers, economists, industrialists, businessmen and women, academics, scientists, educators, societies are giving their "own words and meanings"- their preferred or recommended lists- of what and where it is- our world needs and do: to build back better.It will not surprise you- these lists (and action plans) are seldom the same, aligned and attuned- but have much in common in and between each other, and experts and scientists rightly ask themselves: will the change by our Leadership be timely, deep, honest and real enough?.We have now 5 years experience with the program and deliveries from the Paris Climate Agreement, Energy- Economy Transition/ Reform and the UN SDGs.- and each of you may hold his or her own opinion.But quite safely I could state: we are yet missing the point, the focus, the directness, the idea, the Plan, the organisation and the momentum to be good for our world.So, these 99 Theses are from my hand. I created and collated these - over the last decade and most notably this year - and based on this working practice, professional life-time experience and experimental discovery work on Global Change, Energy- Economy Architecture Transition, Paris Climate Agreement, UN SDGs and our Leadership, thereover. These Theses are here to guide and inspire you- and in our joint wish and effort to Build Back Better- in our Great Reset and our Decade of Action.!I am sure that governments, politicians, diplomats, institutes, bankers, economists, industrialists, businessmen and women, academics, scientists, educators, societies of good-will can come forward with their own 99 theses, honest and real.And that is now exactly the point, and what, I Believe- we, our world, now needs and wantWe want to deepen our understanding, inspire more open, creative and richer conversations, advance our learning, and organize and enable a true reform- of what today is becoming so clearly broken.I welcome you to these 99 theses!

99 Theses on the Revaluation of Value
Author: Brian Massumi
Publisher: U of Minnesota Press
ISBN: 1452958122
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 197
Book Description
A speculative exploration of value, emphasizing practical experimentation in its future forms How can we begin to envision a postcapitalist economy without first engineering a radically new concept of value? And with a renewed sense of how and what we collectively value, what would the transition to new social forms look like? According to Brian Massumi, it is time to reclaim value from the capitalist market and the neoliberal reduction of life to “human capital.” It is time to occupy surplus-value for a postcapitalist future. 99 Theses on the Revaluation of Value is both a theoretical and practical manifesto. Massumi reexamines ideas about money, exchange, and finance, with special attention to how what we value in experience for quality is economically translated into quantity. He proposes new conceptual tools for understanding value in directly qualitative terms, speculating on how this revaluation of value might practically form the basis of an alter-economy. A promising path, he suggests, might involve emerging blockchain technologies beyond bitcoin. But these must be uprooted from their libertarian origins and redesigned to serve not individual choice but collective creativity, not calculations of self-interest but collaborative speculations on the future to be shared. It is necessary to grasp the specificity of our contemporary neoliberal condition and the ultimately destructive forms of power it mobilizes to better resist their claim on the future. 99 Theses on the Revaluation of Value is written to galvanize a radical redefinition of value for a livable postcapitalist future.

Martin Luther's Ninety-Five Theses
Author: Timothy J. Wengert
Publisher: Fortress Press
ISBN: 1506401945
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 101
Book Description
By almost any reckoning, the Ninety-Five Theses ranks as the most important text of the Reformation, if not in substance at least in impact. As the anniversary of its posting on the church door in Wittenberg approaches, what better way to remember and recognize the occasion than to make this important text more easily understood by twenty-first-century readers? Timothy J. Wengert, one of the best-known interpreters of Luther and Lutheranism active today, sets his newly translated Ninety-Five Theses in its historical context with a detailed introduction and illuminating study notes. To help the reader understand the context and the import of the Ninety-Five Theses more deeply, Wengert provides two more related and essential documents: Luthers Letter to Archbishop Albrecht of Mainz (to which he appended a copy of the Theses) and Luthers 1518 Sermon on Indulgences and Grace (written to inform the German-speaking public of his view of indulgences). The book is simply constructed with introductions and notes for each of the writings, as well as a study guide with questions for individual or group reflection and conversation.
