Undertaking Utopia with Kristen R. Ghodsee
Description
How does one define utopia? Is it a place, a plan, or a proposal? Have we come closer to utopia through progress in feminism? Zachary and Emma speak with Kristen R. Ghodsee, ethnographer, professor, and author of "Everyday Utopia: What 2,000 Years of Wild Experiments Can Teach Us About the Good Life." They discuss the history of utopian movements, the danger of fearing change, and how weirdos and dreamers help move society forward.
What Could Go Right? is produced by The Progress Network and The Podglomerate.
