POLI 391 - Utopia/Dystopia

Institution:
College of Charleston
Subject:
Political Science
Description:
The study of utopia, or the ideal, yet non-existent, place is a staple of Western political thought. Utopias criticize one's own world while simultaneously setting out a framework for a better future. Dystopias sharpen this criticism by presenting a vision of the worst place. This class analyzes these criticisms and evaluates proposals about, among other things, ideal government, family life and education.
