Zweifel(los) Manifestieren
Ich soll mir mein ideales Leben imaginieren? Wie soll das mit dem Manifestieren je was werden? Das kann doch nicht klappen! Wo soll das jetzt herkommen? Wie soll ich meine Wünsche je erreichen? Kennst du solche Gedanken? Das Gegenteil von Glauben ist nicht ein Mangel an Glauben, sondern Zweifel. Beim Gesetz der Annahme (GDA) gilt: Glaube + Zweifel = Nichts passiert. Der Zweifel ist das Einzige, was uns beim GDA ins Trudeln bringen kann. Wenn wir zweifeln sind wir gefangen in unseren alten Denkmustern, in unseren negativen Emotionen, die uns daran hindern an uns selbst zu glauben. Darum ist es umso wichtiger, den Zweifel zu minimieren und einen guten Umgang damit zu finden, bis er sich schli...
Rethinking the Andes–Amazonia Divide
Nowhere on Earth is there an ecological transformation so swift and so extreme as between the snow-line of the high Andes and the tropical rainforest of Amazonia. The different disciplines that research the human past in South America have long tended to treat these two great subzones of the continent as self-contained enough to be taken independently of each other. Objections have repeatedly been raised, however, to warn against imagining too sharp a divide between the people and societies of the Andes and Amazonia, when there are also clear indications of significant connections and transitions between them. Rethinking the Andes–Amazonia Divide brings together archaeologists, linguists, ...
The Social Machine
New ways to design spaces for online interaction—and how they will change society. Computers were first conceived as “thinking machines,” but in the twenty-first century they have become social machines, online places where people meet friends, play games, and collaborate on projects. In this book, Judith Donath argues persuasively that for social media to become truly sociable media, we must design interfaces that reflect how we understand and respond to the social world. People and their actions are still harder to perceive online than face to face: interfaces are clunky, and we have less sense of other people's character and intentions, where they congregate, and what they do. Donat...
Language, Coffee, and Migration on an Andean-Amazonian Frontier
Extraordinary change is under way in the Alto Urubamba Valley, a vital and turbulent corner of the Andean-Amazonian borderland of southern Peru. Here, tens of thousands of Quechua-speaking farmers from the rural Andes have migrated to the territory of the Indigenous Amazonian Matsigenka people in search of land for coffee cultivation. This migration has created a new multilingual, multiethnic agrarian society. The rich-tasting Peruvian coffee in your cup is the distillate of an intensely dynamic Amazonian frontier, where native Matsigenkas, state agents, and migrants from the rural highlands are carving the forest into farms. Language, Coffee, and Migration on an Andean-Amazonian Frontier sh...
Island, River, and Field
Archaeologists have long associated the development of agriculture with the rise of the state. But the archaeology of the Amazon Basin, revealing traces of agriculture but lacking evidence of statehood, confounds their assumptions. John H. Walker’s innovative study of the Bolivian Amazon addresses this contradiction by examining the agricultural landscape and analyzing the earthworks from an archaeological perspective. The archaeological data is presented in ascending scale throughout the book. Scholars across archaeology and environmental anthropology will find the methodology and theoretical arguments essential for further study.
