The Ends of Utopian Thinking in Critical Theory presents a critical analysis of how utopian thinking has been defeated as a tool of philosophy with the explicit objective of analyzing and emancipating the world. While utopian thinking was originally intertwined with ideas of a radically better society, many of its most influential practitioners today express skepticism towards the use of utopian ideas. In response, Nina Rismal offers a compelling defense of utopian thinking. By clarifying a concept of utopia that is free from its perceived drawbacks, The End of Utopian Thinking in Critical Theory argues that utopian thinking can indeed be a valuable resource for achieving emancipatory social goals.

The Ends of Utopian Thinking in Critical Theory

The Ends of Utopian Thinking in Critical Theory offers a critical account of how utopian thinking became defeated as a tool of philosophy whose explicit objective has been to not only analyse but emancipate the world. While such philosophy was originally inseparable from ideas of a radically better society it aimed to realise, many of its most influential practitioners today object to the use of utopian ideas. Countering this scepticism, Nina Rismal offers a moving defense of utopian thinking. By elucidating a concept of utopia freed of its alleged pitfalls, The End of Utopian Thinking in Critical Theory contends that utopian thinking indeed presents an important resource for achieving emancipatory social goals.
