Utopias have traditionally signified the ideal future: large-scale social, political, ethical, and religious spaces that have yet to be realized. Utopia/Dystopia offers a fresh approach to these ideas. Rather than locate utopias in grandiose programs of future totality, the book treats these concepts as historically grounded categories and examines how individuals and groups throughout time have interpreted utopian visions in their daily present, with an eye toward the future. From colonial and postcolonial Africa to pre-Marxist and Stalinist Eastern Europe, from the social life of fossil fuels to dreams of nuclear power, and from everyday politics in contemporary India to imagined architectures of postwar Britain, this interdisciplinary collection provides new understandings of the utopian/dystopian experience. The essays look at such issues as imaginary utopian perspectives leading to the 1856-57 Xhosa Cattle Killing in South Africa, the functioning racist utopia behind the Rhodesian independence movement, the utopia of the peaceful atom and its global dissemination in the mid-1950's, the possibilities for an everyday utopia in modern cities, and how the Stalinist purges of the 1930's served as an extension of the utopian/dystopian relationship. The contributors are Dipesh Chakrabarty, Igal Halfin, Fredric Jameson, John Krige, Timothy Mitchell, Aditya Nigam, David Pinder, Marci Shore, Jennifer Wenzel, and Luise White. 606 $aUtopias$xHistory 606 $aDystopias$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aUtopias$xHistory. 615 0$aDystopias$xHistory. 676 $a335/.02 701 $aGordin$b Michael D$0480891 701 $aTilley$b Helen$f1968-$01040063 701 $aPrakash$b Gyan$f1952-$01036716 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459867303321 996 $aUtopia$92462669 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01585nam 2200373 n 450 001 996386468003316 005 20221108025014.0 035 $a(CKB)1000000000618777 035 $a(EEBO)2240886547 035 $a(UnM)ocm15565275e 035 $a(UnM)15565275 035 $a(OCoLC)15565275 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000618777 100 $a19870422d1679 uh 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurbn||||a|bb| 200 10$aBy the King's most Excellent Majesty in Council, a proclamation for proroguing the Parliament till the eleventh of November next$b[electronic resource] 210 $aLondon $cPrinted by John Bill, Thomas Newcomb, and Henry Hills, printers to the Kings most excellent Majesty$d1679 215 $a1 broadside 300 $aAt end of text: Given at our court at Whitehall the eleventh day of December, in the one and thirtieth year of our reign. 300 $aSteele notation: Arms 90 the said as. 300 $aIdentified as Wing C3384 on UMI microfilm set "Early English books, 1641-1700", reel 1588. 300 $aReproduction of original in the British Library. 330 $aeebo-0113 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yCharles II, 1660-1685$vEarly works to 1800 701 $aCharles$cKing of England,$f1630-1685.$0793293 801 0$bCu-RivES 801 1$bCu-RivES 801 2$bCStRLIN 801 2$bCu-RivES 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996386468003316 996 $aBy the King's most Excellent Majesty in Council, a proclamation for proroguing the Parliament till the eleventh of November next$92313374 997 $aUNISA
