Synopsis

Valley Looms Thrive delves into the world of Andean weaving, exploring how e-commerce is transforming the economic lives of indigenous artisans. This art, deeply rooted in Andean culture, faces new opportunities and challenges as it transitions from local markets to online platforms. The book highlights the potential of digital technology to boost income and preserve cultural heritage, while also addressing critical issues like fair trade and protecting intellectual property rights.

 
Did you know that weaving has been a cornerstone of economic stability for Andean families for millennia and that online platforms are rapidly changing how they access global markets?

 
The book is structured to provide a comprehensive overview, beginning with the historical and cultural context of Andean weaving before analyzing the impact of online platforms on sales. It also examines the ethical considerations of selling textiles online, such as fair pricing and cultural appropriation. Through interviews with weavers and analyses of online marketplaces, Valley Looms Thrive offers strategies for creating a more equitable and culturally sensitive online environment. It highlights successful online ventures and initiatives supporting indigenous weavers, and presents approaches to ensure this ancient art continues to thrive in a digital world.

    Guaranteed to give the reader a deeper understanding of America’s most powerful judicial body, John Yoo, professor of law at UC Berkeley, and Robert Delahunty, professor of law at the University of St. Thomas detail in sprightly, slightly irreverent manner how the black robed judges who make up the U.S. Supreme Court have swung like a pendulum from saviors of the Republic to super-legislators who usurp the roll of Congress and dictate law from the bench, back to defenders of the Constitution again—or at least for the moment.

    What guides us when our world is changing? Discover the path to deeper meaning and purpose through depth psychology and classical thought.   How did we get to this crossroads in history? And will we make it through—individually and as a species? “We all assumed that learning, rationality, and good intentions would prove enough to bring us to the promised land,” says Dr. James Hollis. “But they haven’t and won’t. Yet what we also do not recognize sufficiently is that this human animal is equipped for survival. In time, as we have seen of life’s other insolubles, we grow large enough to contain what threatened to destroy us.”   Dr. Hollis’s readers know him as a penetrating thinker who brings profound insight and sophistication to the inner journey. In Living Between Worlds, he broadens his lens to encompass the relationship between our inner struggles and the rapidly shifting realities of modern human existence. You will learn to invoke the tools of depth psychology, classical literature, philosophy, dream work, and myth to gain access to the resources that supported our ancestors through their darkest hours. Through these paths of inner exploration, you will access your “locus of knowing”—an inner wellspring of deep resilience beyond the ego, always available to guide you back to the imperatives of your soul.   Though many of the challenges of our times are unique, the path through for us, personally and collectively, will always rely on our measureless capacity for creativity, wisdom, and connection to a reality larger than ourselves. Here you will find no easy answers or pat reassurances. Yet within the pages of Living Between Worlds, you will encounter causes for hope. “We can find what supports us when nothing supports us,” Hollis teaches. “By bearing the unbearable, we go through the desert to arrive at a nurturing oasis we did not know was there.”
