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

Utopia today is reality tomorrow. So let's dream utopia.

Utopianism is a supercilious term to describe serious, thoughtful conceptions of world-order, peace and human fulfilment.

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.
