Oxfam believes that in a world rich in resources, poverty isn’t a fact
of life but an injustice which must be overcome. We believe that
everyone is entitled to a life of dignity and opportunity, and we work
with poor communities, local partner organisations, volunteers and
supporters to make this a reality. Oxfam’s goal is a world where every
person is safe, healthy, secure, skilled, heard, and equal..
Environment/Whaling
An issue that demands
clarification.
The issue of whaling in the media is presented as one of culture or
country vs. other. But it
is not that simple. If the Japanese government cares about small
coastal
whalers, why does it also promote giant factory whale fleets? And
why
does it not offer the same protection to Japanese rice against foreign
imports? If the U.S.
opposes whaling, as does Greenpeace (including Greenpeace Japan),
why
does the U.S. oppose Greenpeace on almost every other
environmental
issue? And why does the world’s media treat Japanese whaling as
if it
was more barbarous than the treatment by all countries of livestock?
Why too does the Japanese media say it is a cultural issue when
the
Scandinavian countries share almost the same culture yet have
different
views on whaling? And wasn’t the US also a whlaing nation until
fairly recently, historically speaking? Here are two groups with
essentially Japanese members. Please

The
Radical Psychology Network
We
challenge psychology's traditional focus on minor reform, because
enhancing human welfare demands fundamental social change instead.
Moreover, psychology itself has too often oppressed people rather than
liberated them.
Alfie Kohn
The negatives of competition in the classroom
Wise
Hat (Japan)
First, and perhaps foremost we
support co-operative learning. The games and activities in these pages,
and the material we sell are designed to be used non-competitively...
We all still working things out, we are experimenting, but our aim is
clear. We are going to initiate a giving economy...You can help create
a giving economy too. Like ripples in water, giving can spread. If you
use our products, if you like our ideas, send us some energy so we can
keep on creating them. But send some energy elsewhere too. I'm not
talking about faceless charity contributions but genuine giving. Give
some energy to someone you meet or know. It can be money but it doesn't
need to be. Give a gift, give time, give a little living.
And the fear will go.
And love will take it's place.
Dechooling Society
Ivan Illich became well known in
1970, when he published Deschooling
Society
which argued that the top-down management of schools makes students
powerless - and that the same top-down management is typical of the
modern, technological economy that prevents people from learning. Tools for Conviviality made the same criticism of technology
generally. Along with Energy
and Equity, this book made
Ivan Illich one of the most important theorists of the radical ecology
movement of the 1970s.
Paul
Goodman
Paul Goodman became one of the
most influential social critics of the 1960s after he published Growing Up Absurd,
which looked at the problems of youth in the "organized system" of
modern American society. He wrote on many subjects, criticizing the
failings of our organized technological society, and making practical
proposals to create a modern society on the human scale.
