If the system is built on fear and the law students are not able to discover the nature of their roles, then one can begin to appreciate the nature of the...
Bill, fear is a pretty stable basis for a political system, if it is brutal enough. Most are. The system may last as long as the fear is maintained, or some...

TXS Jon: There is a different orientation. Another facet of the legal discussion can be found within work funded by the Dana Foundation and the AAAS. An...
Dear Ken, I see another analytical layer added to the emergence of a "higher unforeseen meaning, purpose and story": while we are caught up in the narrative...
Just a comment about the workshop. I'd like to participate but am unable at this point. But I think it speaks to an important idea. I think the storytelling...
Jon, Thanks for the clarification. I'm hoping we'll have some sort of proceedings from the workshop available on the net. Ken Jon Bennett <jonbenn@...>...
