  • Craft Work

    Making Form in a Broken World

    by Robin Holt ...
    How can human flourishing arise from what the poet Mary Oliver called 'good work/ongoing'? In its attentiveness to the material, form and purpose of distinct, well-made things, craft epitomizes good work. In its disciplined, quiet giving over to the repetitions of tradition, craft is ongoing. Perhaps more than any other practice, craft work reveals the intimacy between a manifest sense of self and ...

  • The Poverty of Strategy

    Organization in the Shadows of Technology

  • Wittgenstein, Politics and Human Rights

    by Robin Holt ...
    Do human rights make sense? They have been central to post-war political life, and our picture of moral self. But this is being eroded, Holt argues, and with it the viability of human rights discourse.

In this edited book, we stress the importance of organization as time. Time is an organizing force.
