Subject: [Dialogue] A global repository as the focus of our movement


Hello colleagues. 

I've attached a talking paper to share reflections about the May Archive
Sojourn month in Chicago and other events and developments in our corner of
the universe.


The purpose of this talking paper. This talking paper is the first of three
that I hope will stimulate conversation about the future of EI-OE-ICA. I
started writing the paper in early June after the May Archive Sojourn month
to share reflections and proposals that arose from my experience. I'm
championing an expanded image of the role and function of the Global Archive
as a repository dynamic with ongoing publishing, communicating and community
building activities. 


This piece is a first take on thinking about the meaning of the three events
that have occurred in the last twelve months: the "Transforming the Legacy"
symposium in DC, the "May Archive Sojourn" in Chicago, and the ICA-Oklahoma
City University "Peace Poverty Planet Earth" conference in OKC earlier this
month.

The first paper starts some bridge building between the old ICA and the old
movement to a way of imagining how we might reengage with each other in one
last, vital burst of creativity needed to care for the human family.

Jim Wheeler and Bill Parker have recently made two very fine statements that
project new images of the future of the Ecumenical Institute. I hope that
they will post them on the listservs.

You might think of the three papers I'm sending as attempts to spin a new
set of narratives about the role and value of a new ordering dynamic in
relationship with EI and ICA.

I'll find a place to post these papers online where they can be downloaded.

Give me feedback.

David
