Our times of crumbling structures and decaying social bonds are often
depicted as apocalyptic. This book takes the apocalypse as a metaphor
to help us in the search for meaning in our everyday realities. Yes,
the apocalypse is when social structures and institutions fall apart
and we are terrified and suffocated by the debris raining down upon
us. But 'apocalypse' also means 'revelation'. The very collapse
reveals what dissipating institutions were constructed upon: where
there ought to have been foundational common values, most often there
is violence and raw power. Yet the values are there, too, and they can
be found. This book is a guide to these values, showing how they can
be of help to organizers and organizational dreamers.
