What if utopia is not only dreams and fantasies, but also scientific and philosophical research? After all, behind every idea that once seemed impossible were people who were able to think beyond reality. This is how projects of ideal states, communes and communities were created, samples of new forms of social life in which everyone would have their role and place, and everyone would be happy.
The authors will discuss the most famous projects of ideal states, from classical antique sources to the Russian philosophy of the early twentieth century. Examples from popular culture, such as the Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter universes, the Wild West World series, and many others will help to better understand how philosophical theories of the ideal world work. In this book, the authors show that utopian ideas are not only necessary but also useful for a society that wants to live in a better world.
