Gah!  To hell with facebook links that require an account.

I found the document here:

The last chapter (The trouble with autocratic architecture) is an interesting 
look inside the Arcosanti project.  It makes Paolo Soleri sound like a control 
freak, which is a trait that seems to be common among visionaries.  Libby 
observes:

    "Arcosanti, in its future form, wishes to prototype an arcology. I have 
concluded that is only part of the formula for creating an alternative 
development model to the urban sprawl. Also needed is a social architecture 
that allows for community development. Community development should be seen as 
contributing a value equal to the physical structure."
