Zusatztext In their cautionary and inspiring essays on the history of utopian practice and thought... Edward Rothstein, Herbert Muschcamp, and Martin E. Marty maintain that while the road to utopia often leads to failure or dystopia, the utopian impulse and quest is in itself of great value. With impassioned acuity, Rothstein, a cultural critic at The New York Times, analyzes the legacy of literary and political utopias.

Klappentext From the sex-free paradise of the Shakers to the worker's paradise of Marx, utopian ideas seem to have two things in common-they all are wonderfully plausible at the start and they all end up as disasters. In Visions of Utopia, three leading cultural critics-Edward Rothstein, Martin Marty, and Herbert Muschamp-look at the history of utopian thinking, exploring why they fail and why they are still worth pursuing.
