The Task of Utopia: A Pragmatist and Feminist Perspective

Are utopian visions viable in the 21st century? Utopia has been equated, for many, with totalitarianism. Such visions are not acceptable. The loss of utopian visions altogether is also unacceptable. This book argues that American Pragmatism and Feminist theory can combine to provide a process model of utopia that pushes to build a flexible future that helps us deal with change, conflict, and diversity without resorting to fixed ends.Erin McKenna is the author of 'The Task of Utopia: A Pragmatist and Feminist Perspective', published 2001 under ISBN 9780742513181 and ISBN 0742513181.
