Download or read book Individual Collectivism written by Albert Sachteleben and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Individualism is the idea that everyone is responsible for his or herself and has an inalienable right to live the life of their choosing. Everyone is sovereign, an end in themselves, and the only unit of concern. While the central tenants of individualism ring true, western society often operates on a falsified version of the super-empowered individual. Through the glorification of the self, western culture has taught us to prioritize our own needs over those of others. The cultural bias that hyper inflates the value of individual action makes it near impossible for humans to exist in a healthy society. In contrast to individualism, collectivism stresses the importance of the community. It is mostly concerned with unity and selflessness with a focus on the greater good of the whole. The main principles of collectivist societies include public ownership, cooperation, collective interest, and economic equality. While extreme examples of this philosophy have shown themselves to be fatally flawed, the question must become, can collectivist principles improve the western concept of society? Throughout the United States, previously forgotten urban neighborhoods are seeing a resurgence of speculation. Housing costs have risen exponentially due to profit-driven speculation, displacing life long residents, and paving the way for re-imagined communities suited to market trends rather than the needs of residents. The motivation for this thesis is to reconcile the seemingly opposing philosophies of individualism and collectivism by applying the benefits of cooperative action to resident-driven community development in the Brightmoor neighborhood of Detroit, Michigan. This project focuses on an organizational structure that provides a framework for an economically sustainable resident-led development strategy in the Brightmoor neighborhood in Detroit, Michigan. Through studying the history and precedent examples of intentional communities as well as building relationships with community members, the author will argue that collective ownership is an economic development strategy that struggling communities can implement to provide services for both future and existing residents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael, aged seventeen, is slumbering on an eerily hot spring night. Without warning, a human with purple eyes breaks through his window and pins Michael to the bed. At that moment, a skeleton leaps out of the night and cuts the head off as more humans with purple eyes flood in. The skeleton set to work on cutting them down. Soon, Michaels room resembles a slaughterhouse. Father Gordon drags Michael from his room to an awaiting van as a purple hue consumes the city of Detroit. In the van, Michael learns that he has been born in a war of the heavens and Derrock and that he is the reason for the purple hue. He also learns that one half of his soul is pure, the other evil. Will the pure light of his soul bring the end to all souls or will evil damn the earth and heavens to damnation? Michael has the beast stirring inside, and it wants out. Can Michael control the beast and his mind?

Download or read book The Unreal Estate Guide to Detroit written by Andrew Herscher and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2012-11-14 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intense attention has been paid to Detroit as a site of urban crisis. This crisis, however, has not only yielded the massive devaluation of real estate that has so often been noted; it has also yielded an explosive production of seemingly valueless urban property that has facilitated the imagination and practice of alternative urbanisms. The first sustained study of Detroit’s alternative urban cultures, The Unreal Estate Guide to Detroit initiates a new focus on Detroit as a site not only of urban crisis but also of urban possibility. The Guide documents art and curatorial practices, community and guerilla gardens, urban farming and forestry, cultural platforms, living archives, evangelical missions, temporary public spaces, intentional communities, furtive monuments, outsider architecture, and other work made possible by the ready availability of urban space in Detroit. The Guide poses these spaces as “unreal estate”: urban territory that has slipped through the free- market economy and entered other regimes of value, other contexts of meaning, and other systems of use. The appropriation of this territory in Detroit, the Guide suggests, offers new perspectives on what a city is and can be, especially in a time of urban crisis.
