The World We'll Leave Behind: Grasping the Sustainability Challenge
It is now clear that human activity has influenced how the biosphere supports life on Earth, and given rise to a set of connected environmental and social problems. In response to the challenge that these problems present, a series of international conferences and summits led to discussions of sustainable development and the core dilemma of our time: How can we all live well, now and in the future, without compromising the ability of the planet t…

Learning for a Change: Exploring the Relationship Between Education and Sustainable Development
Whether we view sustainable development as our greatest challenge or a subversive litany, every phase of education is now being urged to declare its support for education for sustainable development (ESD). In this paper, we explore the ideas behind ESD and, building on work by Foster and by Scott and Gough, we argue that it is necessary now to think of two complementary approaches: ESD 1 and ESD 2. We see ESD 1 as the promotion of informed, skill…

Belonging to History: Margaret Walker's For My People
Belonging to History:Margaret Walker’s For My People William Scott My own interpretation [of Walker's novel, Jubilee,] is that it is not only historical, but also, and primarily, Historical. . . . "Historical," in this sense, is a metaphor for the unfolding of the Divine Will. . . . In this view of things, human doings are only illusions of a counterfeit autonomy; [in Walker's novel] agents (or characters) are moving and are moved under the aegis…

Motivos of Translation: Nicolas Guillen and Langston Hughes
Motivos of TranslationNicolás Guillén and Langston Hughes William Scott (bio) From almost the very beginning of their long friendship, Nicolás Guillén and Langston Hughes have often been taken together as representatives of a self-conscious Afro-Cuban/Afro-American poetico-political project.1 Both poets' careers span the same period of time, roughly from the 1920s to the 1960s; both poets were held up as the voice of "the people" by their respect…
To Make up the Hedge and Stand in the Gap: Arna Bontemps's Black Thunder
As a young minister in my early twenties, I was just glad to be standing in their number, bonding with ministerial mentors, men standing on the front lines of spiritual warfare, or, as the black church memorably refers to it, "standing in the gap": carrying and crying the judgment of the Almighty, opening opportunity for salvation, proclaiming the soul's rescue and the requirements of redemption, and edifying believers with the inscrutable, wholl…
Sustainable Development and Learning: Framing the issues
This book examines the difficult and wide-ranging issues relating to how we understand our environment, our place in it, and how we choose to act. This comprehensive text provides an overview of these developing key issues, illustrating how - through schooling, higher education, professional training and development, and awareness-raising - people can bring about change, as well as engaging in debate and critique of issues. The book builds on exi…
Deleuze and Guattari's Anti-Oedipus: Introduction to Schizoanalysis (review)
Eugene Holland's second book is an eloquent and rigorously argued complement to his first, Baudelaire and Schizoanalysis: The Sociopoetics of Modernism (Cambridge University Press, 1993). As Holland describes it, the second book is intended to be "an introduction to reading Deleuze and Guattari's Anti-Oedipus, not . . . a substitute for it" (vii). It is one of three such books to appear in the last decade, including Michael Hardt's Gilles Deleuze…

Deconstructing action competence: Developing a case for a more scientifically-attentive environmental education
Environmental education tends to be characterized by a rhetoric of action-taking, and the call for the development of personal action competence is one manifestation of this. This paper critically examines recent work on the concept of action competence. This is seen as a set of capabilities which equip people with the ability to take purposive and focused action, and which embodies a democratic commitment to be participants in the continuing sha…

The Pursuit of "Interests" in the French Revolution: A Preliminary Survey
Recently two influential and stimulating historians of the French Revolution, Francois Furet and Lynn Hunt, have singled out major deficiency in the political culture of France.' The French failure to conceive of politics in terms of the reconciliation of interests, seen as forming the basis of Anglo-Saxon political culture, was instrumental in producing messianic strain of politics aiming at the total transformation of society, rather than the l…

François Furet and Democracy in France
Recently, Francois Furet has acclaimed the French revolution of 1789 as marking the invention of'democratic culture' in 'the torrential birth of democratic politics and ideology'. 1 However, democracy took long to establish itself in France and so Furet's general history, La Revolution, covers the long century from Turgot to Jules Ferry. Defining democracy as, ideally, uniting civil equality and political liberty, it sees that marriage as not bei…

Commerce, capitalism and the political culture of the French Revolution
A common revisionist view holds that ‘no serious historian would now argue that any significant group set out to introduce capitalism into France in 1789’, this verdict being intended to refute the idea of the French Revolution as a ‘bourgeois revolution’, carried out consciously by and in the interests of the commercial classes.’ It is also, however, frequently stated that no one ‘intended’ to promote a revolurion in 1789, especially since the m…
