Population Research Institute: Web site

When I first started working with the Population Research Institute, their website relied on a proprietary content management system. Their site offered hundreds of articles, but they were full of hard-coded formatting like fonts, heading sizes, and colors (such as purple). Many hours of Perl and proofreading later, PRI had a new Joomla site with a clean, consistent look.

Joomla served them well, but fortunately, by the time they discovered the real constraints, I had discovered Drupal.

Jobs of Our Own, by Race Mathews

Jobs of Our Own: Building a Stakeholder Society: Alternatives to the Market and the State, by Race Mathews (Irving, TX: Distributist Review Press, 2009)

Jobs of Our Own is definitely the best history of distributism I've ever read. The author first published it in his native Australia, and after the book went out of print, the Distributist Review Press decided to print an American edition. Of course, Australian typography is a bit different (take everything you know about single and double quotes, and any nearby punctuation, and reverse it).
