The Dispossessed has been described by political thinker Andre Gorz
as 'The most striking description I know of the seductions--and
snares--of self-managed communist or, in other words, anarchist
society.' To date, however, the radical social, cultural, and
political ramifications of Le Guin's multiple award-winning novel
remain woefully under explored. Editors Laurence Davis and Peter
Stillman right this state of affairs in the first ever collection
of original essays devoted to Le Guin's novel. Among the topics
covered in this wide-ranging, international and interdisciplinary
collection are the anarchist, ecological, post-consumerist,
temporal, revolutionary, and open-ended utopian politics of The
Dispossessed. The book concludes with an essay by Le Guin written
specially for this volume, in which she reassesses the novel in
light of the development of her own thinking over the past 30
years.
