While such philosophy was originally inseparable from ideas of a radically better society it aimed to realise, many of its most influential practitioners today object to the use of utopian ideas. Countering this scepticism, Nina Rismal offers a moving defense of utopian thinking. By elucidating a concept of utopia freed of its alleged pitfalls, \u003cem\u003eThe End of Utopian Thinking in Critical Theory\u003c\/em\u003e contends that utopian thinking indeed presents an important resource for achieving emancipatory social goals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNina Rismal\u003c\/strong\u003e is a researcher, organiser and founder interested in social transformation and future thinking.
