The individual and utopia: a multidisciplinary study of humanity and perfection

Central to the idea of a perfect society is the idea that communities must be strong and bound together with shared ideologies.

However, while this may be true, rarely are the individuals that comprise a community given primacy of place as central to a strong communal theory.

This volume moves away from the dominant, current macro-level theorising on the subject of identity and its relationship to and with globalising trends, focusing instead on the individual?s relationship with utopia so as to offer new interpretive approaches for engaging with and examining utopian individuality.
