Dear cj, The following new or updated articles were posted today to Cyberlib. The two non-political articles at the end were completely re-written for their recent publication in Enneagram Monthly. -rkm ________________________________________________________________ o Articles-by-RKM/ Folder containing articles I've written. o America_&_NWO -- "America and the New World Order" -- published in New Dawn magazine and in Joe Shea's online "American Reporter". In order to get a comprehensive picture of where globalization came from and where it is going, this article makes a whirlwind tour of American history, showing how that feeds into what has now become the mainstream of world history. If sovereign national states, sometimes competing and sometimes cooperating, have been the Familiar World Order, then globalization seems to be leading us all inexorably toward a New World Order where mega-corporations (and the wealthy elite who control them) reign supreme, and nations are reduced to a vestigial, subservient, policing role -- controlling the populace on behalf of the elite -- as we see already in much of the Third World. o Exorcising_Capitalism -- 30 August 1996 "... Capitalism Is a Cancer Infecting Our Economy " Our economy is not a commercial system that pursues profit, but a capitalist system that pursues growth. A commercial economy is like an animal's regulatory system, which moves nutrients around the body and keeps the host (society) healthy. A capitalist economy is like a cancer, which sucks nutrients out of the body and consumes the host..." ________________________________________________________________ o Other-Articles/ Folder holding articles (from miscellaneous sources) which provide important perspectives. o Story_of_Crack .. RACHEL'S ENVIRONMENT & HEALTH WEEKLY #509 ---August 29, 1996--- AMERICA'S SECRET WAR "...After passage of the Boland amendment, the Contras desperately needed a new source of funds. (This was several years before Oliver North set up his Iran connection to divert money from arms sales to the Contras.) According to a year-long investigation by the SAN JOSE (California) MERCURY NEWS based on court records, recently declassified documents, undercover audio tapes, and files retrieved via the Freedom of Information Act, the FDN solved its problem by opening the first pipeline from the Colombian cocaine cartels to black gangs -- the Crips and the Bloods -- on the streets of Los Angeles.[7]..." ________________________________________________________________ o Non-Political-Articles/ Folder with my articles on non-political subjects. o Physics_&_Enneagram -- "Physics and the Enneagram -- an Investigation into Psychology and The Law of Three" As published in Enneagram Monthly, December 1996 Have you ever heard of the Enneagram? It's popular these days as the basis of a personality typology -- another way to ask "What sign are you?". The difference from astrology is that the Enneagram seems to be based on some real underlying forces. I learned the system years ago and found it useful, but always wondered what made it tick. That took a while to figure out. The Enneagram symbol itself isn't about personality, it's a kind of "slide rule" which describes dynamic intereactions between certain kinds of force fields. Thus, the personality Enneagram must be based on some kind of interacting psychological forces. This article offers a model which purports to identify those forces, and shows how they might result in the observed personality types. o LifeCycle_of_Endeavors -- "The Life Cycle of Creative Endeavors" As published in Enneagram Monthly, February 1997 As part of investigating the Enneagram, it was necessary to "apply" the Enneagram to more than one situation, to separate the general from the particular. Since my career has been one of carrying out creative projects, and I had identified nine primary project phases based on that experience, I tried mapping those phases onto the Enneagram symbol. The result was remarkable indeed. The mapping worked perfectly, and in fact it led, after considerable research, into a much clearer understanding of the "creative flow" during innovative endeavors, and greater insight into the nature of the different phases. The resulting system, described in the article, is incredibly useful. Each of the principles may seem familiar, but taken together as a system they can clear up blockages and confusion in projects, and get things back on track. Best of course, is to use the system from the beginning. ________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ CyberLib maintained by Richard K.
