Weak Messianism: Essays in Everyday Utopianism (Ralahine Utopian Studies)

Michael E. Gardiner

4.9/5 (17686 ratings)

Description:This volume explores the connection between two phenomena usually thought to be utterly incongruous, even ‘utopia’ and ‘everyday life’. It presents a series of essays, written over the last twenty years, which rethink the nature and prospects of utopianism in a world that has grown increasingly sceptical as to the possibility of systemic socio-political transformation in a positive direction. Through critical interdisciplinary engagements with a wide variety of thinkers ranging from Mikhail Bakhtin to Henri Lefebvre and beyond, many of whom are often read as anti -utopian figures, the essays argue that it is possible to locate utopian promises buried deep within the embodied rituals, practices and symbolic forms associated with everyday existence, in a manner that reveals the essential openness of the present day to momentous future change.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
