Analysing Contemporary Society through Lived Utopia
What if utopia wasn't a distant dream, but already unfolding around us?
Focusing on South Africa, this compelling book rethinks utopia not as a fictional unreachable future, but as a lived practice emerging in social movements and intentional communities.
Rejecting capitalism, it explores how people create alternative ways of living social orders or economies, imagining and organising the world. Blending decolonial sociology, political sociology, utopian studies, and real-world experiences, the book offers a fresh and original approach to understanding social transformation in times of crisis.
Analysing Contemporary Society through Lived Utopia is a powerful read for scholars, students, and activists interested in resistance and hope for alternative futures.
