Описание: The capitalist era is passing. Rising in its wake is a new global collaborative Commons that will transform our way of life. Jeremy Rifkin explains that intense competition is forcing the introduction of ever newer technologies, in turn boosting productivity to the point where the marginal cost of producing additional units is nearly zero.

Описание:

After suffering a life-changing trauma at the tender age of four when he found his infant brother dead in his crib, Dr. Rifkin went on a lifelong quest to know and understand the workings of God. His journey took him to northern California to study with the Beatles' guru and to Machu Picchu to study with Incan shamans. He lived in an Indian ashram for eleven years and studied Zen, yoga, and the occult But it wasn't until Jesus revealed himself that his pain was overtaken by the love and peace that only Jesus provides.

Despite being raised Jewish, Dr. Rifkin fully embraced his Messiah and led many of his family to salvation. He has spent nearly forty years as a licensed therapist, helping others to repair their marriages and work their way through their own emotional pain. In 2011, his practice was interrupted when he learned that despite knowing Jesus and living a very healthy lifestyle, he inherited his family's genetic and devastating disease which destroys and eventually shuts down the functioning of both kidneys. Polycystic kidney disease had him on daily dialysis at home which exhausted him. His thirteen-year-old son would keep him company, all the while fearful that his father would die before finding a new kidney. To make matters worse, his wife of eighteen years no longer wanted to remain married. Feeling very alone, he turned to Jesus and was told by the Holy Spirit that he was about to be the recipient of a miracle. Then, eleven months later, after being prompted by the Holy Spirit, he put his request for a living donor on social media, and he received a perfect kidney from a complete stranger.

Today, Dr. Rifkin is remarried to the love of his life and has recently learned that polycystic kidney disease has affected his liver to the point where he will need a transplant. After hours of prayer, he was reassured that he will be successful in this transplantation and looks forward to living out his life with his beautiful wife serving the Lord.

Описание: In 1970 the Nixon administration inaugurated a new era in federal Indian policy. No more would the U.S. government seek to deny and displace Native peoples or dismantle Native governments; from now on federal policy would promote "the Indian's sense of autonomy without threatening his sense of community."In The Erotics of Sovereignty, Mark Rifkin offers a telling perspective on what such a policy of self-determination has meant and looks at how contemporary queer Native writers use representations of sensation to challenge official U.S. accounts of Native identity. Rifkin focuses on four Native writers—Qwo-Li Driskill (Cherokee), Deborah Miranda (Esselen), Greg Sarris (Graton Racheria), and Chrystos (Menominee)—approaching their fiction and poetry as forms of political theory. Rifkin shows how the work of these queer or two-spirit Native writers affirms the significance of the erotic as an exercise of individual and community sovereignty. In this way, we come to see how their work contests the homophobic, sexist, and exclusivist policies and attitudes of tribal communities as well as those of the nation-state.

Описание: In Fictions of Land and Flesh Mark Rifkin explores the impasses that arise in seeking to connect Black and Indigenous movements, turning to speculative fiction to understand those difficulties and envision productive ways of addressing them. Against efforts to subsume varied forms of resistance into a single framework in the name of solidarity, Rifkin argues that Black and Indigenous political struggles are oriented in distinct ways, following their own lines of development and contestation. Rifkin suggests how movement between the two can be approached as something of a speculative leap in which the terms and dynamics of one are disoriented in the encounter with the other. Futurist fiction provides a compelling site for exploring such disjunctions. Through analyses of works by Octavia Butler, Walter Mosley, Nalo Hopkinson, Melissa Tantaquidgeon Zobel, and others, the book illustrates how ideas about fungibility, fugitivity, carcerality, marronage, sovereignty, placemaking, and governance shape the ways Black and Indigenous intellectuals narrate the past, present, and future. In turning to speculative fiction, Rifkin illustrates how speculation as a process provides conceptual and ethical resources for recognizing difference while engaging across it.
