Cheryl Keen, EdD—scholar, activist, Quaker—has always tried to follow her callings which personify commitment, connection, and community. As a pioneer in significant movements--peace education and justice, service-learning, and progressive higher education--Cheryl job-shared seven leadership positions with her husband, Jim. They are parents/grandparents to one biological family as well as three ‘made families.' They have always lived communally because “ethically, I need to share the space that I have.” Now in the new chapter of retirement, Cheryl relishes “just letting myself be in the moment, enjoying hours of unscheduled time, never feeling bored.” In the midst of gardening, singing in choruses, remodeling their home for safer living on the first floor, traveling, playing with grandchildren, and managing a ‘green condo community' in Florida, Cheryl is trying on new identities. She is exchanging her colorful business jackets for garments better suited to her flexible lifestyle.Connect with CherylEmail: Cheryl.keen@yahoo.comCo-author w/ L. Daloz, J. Keen, & S. Parks, (1997).

In Institutions and Democracy in Africa: How the Rules of the Game Shape Political Developments (Cambridge University Press, 2018), the contributors challenge the argument that African states lack effective political institutions as these have been undermined by neo-patrimonialism and clientelism. Scholars such as Patrick Chabal and Jean-Pascal Daloz have argued that Africa's political culture is inherently different from the West and that African political system is actually working through what they term “instrumentalization of disorder.” While acknowledging some of the contributions that Chabal and Daloz have made to the understanding of Africa institutions, the contributions in this volume challenge this notion that political life in Africa is shaped primarily by social customs and not by formal rules. The contributions examine formal institutions such as the legislature, judiciary, and political parties and they show the impact of these institutions on socio-political and economic developments in the continent. Their contributions show that political and institutional developments vary across the continent and African states should not be treated as if they are the same. They argue that informal institutions have helped to shape and strengthen formal institutions. The authors of the different chapters are cutting-edge scholars in the field and they make a clear and convincing argument that formal institutions matter and that it is impossible to understand Africa without taking into consideration the roles played by these institutions. The book is edited by Nic Cheeseman. He is a professor of Democracy at the University of Birmingham and was formerly Director of the African Studies Centre at Oxford University. He is the recipient of the GIGA award for the best article in Comparative Area Studies (2013) and the Frank Cass Award for the best article in Democratization (2015). He is also the author of Democracy in Africa: Successes, Failures and the Struggle for Political Reform (Cambridge University Press, 2015), the founding editor of the Oxford Encyclopedia of African Politic, a former editor of the journal African Affairs, and an advisor to, and writer for, Kofi Annan's African Progress Panel. Bekeh Utietiang Ukelina is an Assistant Professor of History at SUNY, Cortland. His research examines the ideologies and practices of development in Africa, south of the Sahara. He is the author of The Second Colonial Occupation: Development Planning, Agriculture, and the Legacies of British Rule in Nigeria.

"We all have the capacity to have our fire kindled on behalf of the welfare of others and our own." -Sharon Daloz Parks Sharon was in grade school when she first imbibed an image of a shared commons. Her mother made a rule that everyone in her class would get a birthday invitation because it was the right thing to do. Years later Sharon would find herself exploring similar values on a larger scale as a Professor at Harvard. She looked at faith as meaning-making, something that all human beings do, not just what religious folks have. This exploration lead to a collaboration with her now husband, Larry Daloz Parks and Cheryl and James Keen, to co-author the book Common Fire, an artfully crafted analysis of inspired lives that gets to the very primal dimensions of where our collective well-being is dependent... The Commons. Sharon describes the commons as, "a shared life within a manageable frame." When referencing physical space, these are places where we all come together, either planned or unplanned, as ourselves, and are vital for a vibrant society. The modern commons takes many shapes and forms. It may look like Starbucks, a park, a baseball game, or a market. Common Fire explains how integral these spaces are in creating a flourishing society because they create a sense of trust and a framework for understanding Other. These outer landscapes are essential to developing the inner landscapes and capacities required for humanity to lead within complexity on behalf of the collective well-being of others. However, this elemental, place-making, soul-shaping fabric of human society is at a premium in the world today, and it is creating a deep hunger to recover and reimagine the new commons. Although Common Fire was first published in 1996, it carries enormous relevance today as the velocity of change has accelerated leaving us with a gap in responsiveness, understanding and direction. What Sharon articulates so elegantly truly gets to the core of what The Emerging Future Podcast is about: being present and courageous enough to lean into the complexity and unknown of the gap, and to wait expectantly for transformative moments that surprise us, and give us a deep sense of where we are and what's needed to move forward on behalf of Other and the future.
