{"product_id":"utopian-imaginings-victoria-w-wolcott-9781438497518","title":"Utopian Imaginings: Saving the Future in the Present","description":"\"Sometimes that's all it takes to save a world, you see. A new vision. A new way of thinking, appearing at just the right time.\" These words were spoken by a fictional character in N. K. Jemisin's 2019 utopian novella \u003ci\u003eEmergency Skin\u003c\/i\u003e. But the idea of saving the world through utopian imaginings has a deep and profound history. At this moment of rupture--with the related crises of the pandemic, racial uprisings, and climate change converging--\u003ci\u003eUtopian Imaginings\u003c\/i\u003e revisits this history to show how utopian thought and practice offer alternative paths to the future. The third book in the Humanities to the Rescue series, the volume examines both lived and imagined utopian communities from an interdisciplinary perspective. While attentive to the troubled and troubling elements of different spaces and collectives, \u003ci\u003eUtopian Imaginings\u003c\/i\u003e remains premised in hope, culminating in a series of inspiring exemplars of the utopian potential of the college classroom today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Victoria V.
