Cohousing-L Mailing List: resources on individualistic people becoming community oriented?

[Amy D (subcomandanteamy]

Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone has recommendations on
books/websites/resources/ideas that has ideas on encouraging communal ways
in individuals who are more individualistic (that typical cohousers)? I
want to figure out what to do to help when someone in community has an "act
now and beg forgiveness later" attitude and acts brazenly about doing
whatever they want (for instance, cutting down a tree on common land in an
area designated for trees, on something of a whim) and doesn't seem
cognizant of it (or only seems to realize the problem after the fact- and
with lots of excuses). (And, this person has lived here for 10+ years - is
there hope?) Any ideas or direction would be appreciated! Thank you.
