Know about the book -
Utopian Encounters is written by Maïté Maskens and published by Ralahine Utopian Studies. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1787072479 (ISBN 10) and 9781787072473 (ISBN 13).
This volume is an experiment: an enquiry into the possibilities and potentialities of a prospective anthropology of utopia. With different ethnographic contributions studying «empirical utopias» across the world (from ecotopias to religious havens, transnational policies, retirement homes and community agriculture), it looks beyond the commonsense understanding of utopia as a desire, an expectation, a form of imagination stemming from Western political thought. In the process, the volume explores the dynamic dialectic between human imagination and concrete action.
