Description:
Creating an imaginary ideal state or condition, usually as a means of devising proposals for the existing one. Also creating an ideal mental state. Claim:
1. Utopia today is reality tomorrow. So let's dream utopia.2. Utopianism is a supercilious term to describe serious, thoughtful conceptions of world-order, peace and human fulfilment.
3. Utopia must spring in the private bosom before it can flower in civic virtue, inner reforms leading naturally to outer ones. A man who has reformed himself will reform thousands. (Paramhansa Yogananda).
Counter Claim:
Utopianism rejects the struggle of its existing social situation in favour of a world of its own making. Such subjectivity has no practical chance of devising proposals applicable to the world which exists. Constrained by:
