Living Outside the Dialectic ~ nikiraapana.blogspot.com

April 1, 2008, by Niki. ACL Books has just published the first edition of The Anti Communitarian Manifesto in sprial bound paperback. The paper edition is 140 pages and includes additional materials and commentary while leaving the original online thesis intact. Spiral bound like 2020, it has the same cover art as the free online edition. Cost: $20.00 USD.

February 2, 2008, by Niki. ACL Book orders are on the way! Here's the new cover, which for some reason I can't upload to the books page. As with every technical glitch I run into on our websites and publishing projects, Nordica will have to do it. But I think I can get it to upload on this page.



January 4, 2008. ACL book orders are running about three months behind schedule now. Our apologies are sincere. We're very humbled by our ineptitude. So far everyone has been nice and willing to wait, but we will give a full refund to anyone who would rather have their money back. The good news is we're adjusting to the enormous task of self-publishing our own book, and we think our readers will appreciate the new additions.

The revised 2008 version has ISBNs and can go in libraries and bookstores. It's scheduled to go to the new printer on next Monday the 7th. Book orders will be filled as soon as we get the books. Anyone who already purchased the 2006 edition of 2020 is welcome to purchase as many of the 2008 editions as they want for $5.00 each, plus shipping (email for estimate). Thanks to everyone who purchased 2020 and supported us during our "test" edition!

The ACL website is still under construction, but I finally learned to use the new ftp program so I can upload again. Nord's terrified I'll start creating my horrible long, giant pages, but I promised to keep it simple. Her latest layout is so user friendly (especially compared to my old "Welcome" pages). The ACL has so many different "faces" after all the changes we've made over the years, which makes for an interesting mix of reactions to our work.

The "Hegelian dialectic" remains the number one search term leading people to the ACL, and the reader's poll on the Hegel page counts well over 3000 responses now. The Anticommunitarian Manifesto has been read by thousands of people from around the world. The Hegel poll show 100 college professors looked up Hegel and found us, along with some 500 college students. I wonder if there is anyone enrolled in an academic program who will submit a critique of our thesis for their masters or PhD. Have any of the 100 plus high school students or teachers submitted or read critiques for a graded paper? Maybe we should petition the openly critical anticommunitarian President of the Czech Republic to request one of the university's under his influence establishes an Anti Communitarian Studies Program, where we can attend as state funded students pursuing academic degrees.

The old ACL blog is being archived.
