Socialist History Journal Issue 14: The Future of History

FROM THE PUBLISHER

On the eve of the millennium celebrations, Socialist History 15 will focus on the theme of utopianism's role in shaping the political projects of the left. David Purdy considers experiments in utopian thought as tools for moral and intellectual inquiry, while Philip Coupland focuses on the forms of utopian language which were used on the British left during the 1930s specifically. Science fiction is explored from a feminist perspective in a piece by Maureen Spellar and current attempts to explore the "alternate futures" are examined by Mike Tyledsley and Laurence Cox.
