description In a comment on Willis Harman's (1993) article, some of the grass-roots initiatives that have are based on Harman's worldview are discussed. In addition to their intention to bring about some "objective" change, these initiatives have always had a meta-agenda. It includes: 1. the pedagogical or facilitative power of "having done it," 2. the facilitation inherent in recognizing von Foerster's "human becoming" - an expression that points to the stasis implicit in the more usual term, "human being", and, 3. the point Harman makes about recognizing the being imminent in science or emergent from the aggregate of scientized building blocks that have been developed to give such descriptive and manipulative power.
