Summary

Utopia has become a vague term, synonymous almost with the Good Society or the Good Time. It is applied to the dreams and visions of all peoples and all times. This book argues that utopia should be seen as a much more specific tradition of social and political thought. It also aims to show that utopia has cultural and historical boundaries.
