Utopian Bodies and the Politics of Transgression

<p>What do we want? What do we believe to be wrong with the world? How can we best change it?<br>How should we live? Given the world as it is how can we best achieve our dreams and desires?<br><em> Utopian Bodies</em> is quite simply a new approach to thinking about theory. Using the dominant themes of green and feminist politics this fascinating and original text creates a new notion of utopian thought and life - transgressive utopianism. This new concept is not a blueprint for an ideal polity; instead it demonstrates an approach to the world that is both idealistic and pragmatic focussing on bodies of thought in relation to bodies of people: communities. Also spanning philosophy political theory and deconstruction this book is especially relevant today as the millennium marks a time of resurgence in utopian studies</p>
