| Summary: | The socialist utopian proposal of William Morris presents a future that is largely a return to the pre-industrial past, longed for by the author in the full industrial modernity of the nineteenth century that, as an expression of civilization, has only enslaved the human being, deteriorate the environment, deepen injustices and inequalities. The desirable and possible future, after an indispensable revolution for this purpose, implies the transformation of the territory of the state and capital, to an habitable, humanized place, organically linked to nature. The forseeable future begins with the break -and not the continuity- of modern civilizational advances, and crystallizes as a place with meaning, and not as a locus of production. |
