Lives of Our Own - Oliver Heydorn Ph.D. approx. $39.00 posted from UK

The general purpose of Lives of Our Own is to introduce Social Credit economics to Distributists. There are a number of points of contact as well as important differences between these two schools of alternative economic thinking. Whereas Distributism tends to look toward the past, the economics of the British engineer, C.H. Douglas, is future-oriented while seeking to conserve the best from the pre-capitalist economic tradition. In general, Social Credit may be described as a species of archaeo-futurism, a re-interpretation and application of certain Distributist principles to the modern, industrial world.

Social Credit Economics - Oliver Heydorn Ph.D. approx. $39.00 posted from UK

By presenting the key economic ideas of Major Clifford Hugh Douglas (1879-1952) in a clear, systematic, and comprehensive fashion, this work constitutes an academic standard of reference for those who wish to obtain a more advanced understanding of Social Credit economics. It is divided into three parts covering Douglas' diagnosis regarding the nature and cause of economic dysfunction in the modern, industrialized world, his prognosis, including an evaluation of the conventional methods of macroeconomic management, and, finally, his remedial principles and proposals. Just as Douglas analysis goes to the very heart of what is structurally wrong with the financial and economic systems of contemporary civilization, "Social Credit Economics" effectively captures and distills the essence of his economic thought, rendering it more easily accessible to the broadly educated and reflective reader.

The Economics of Social Credit and Catholic Social Teaching - Oliver Heydorn Ph.D. approx. $21.00 posted from UK

Dr. Oliver Heydorn argues that it is high time that all Catholics take seriously and examine closely the economic ideas of Major Clifford Hugh Douglas (1879-1952). By surveying the key principles contained within the Church's social doctrine in conjunction with Douglas' Social Credit proposals and their underlying philosophy, the author demonstrates that (in stark contrast to the dead-ends of Austrian economics and the 'Christian socialism' of 'liberation theology' et al. and the half-way houses of classical distributism and economic personalism) it is Social Credit which most fully merits the support of Catholics as the best alternative to the economic status quo.

This little light-hearted account of the neglected importance of the army cook, aims to alert the man in the street to the fact that Food is Life, and that the preparation of foodstuffs with the least wastage of essential nutrients is fundamental to national health and to the national economy.

Food production has been all too long an item of financial calculation.
It is an integrated biological process calling for a totally different mode of thinking.

INFERNO - The Day Victoria Burned

Foreword
On February 7, 2009, 173 Victorians perished, most burned to death, in a state that makes an ostentatious fetish of protecting public safety. Victorians accept stiff fines for driving just a few ticks over the speed limit. They cannot ride bicycles without approved mandatory helmets, nor can tradesmen go about their business unless they are wearing iridescent vests. In restaurants, requests for bags are likely to be rejected because of concerns about legal liability.

Cutting the road toll, preventing head injuries, reducing the incidence of food poisoning " all the above measures, we are told, are for the common good. But protection from bushfires? These massive and regular destroyers of life and property have avoided the sort of attention lavished on day-old sushi. When the day that has come to be called Black Saturday finally ended, the Victorian government, government agencies and emergency protocols came under the most intense scrutiny, a scrutiny that saw Justice Bernard Teague"s Royal Commission make 51 recommendations for change, with one guiding direction, "to enhance the protection of human lives".

The rote response from those in authority was about looking forward, not looking back; February 7 was, they said, a unique event, nobody could have foreseen it. But none of these words rang with the faintest echo of common sense and experience...
