Better Worlds: Education, Art, and Utopia provides a fresh
examination of utopia and education. Adopting an interdisciplinary
approach and drawing on literature and the visual arts as well as
traditional non-fiction sources, the authors explore utopia not as
a model of social perfection but as the active, imaginative
building of better worlds. Utopian questions, they argue, lie at
the heart of education, and addressing such questions demands
attention not just to matters of theoretical principle but to the
particulars of everyday life and experience. Taking utopia
seriously in educational thought also involves a consideration of
that which is dystopian. Utopia, this book suggests, is not
something that is fixed, final, or ever fully realized; instead, it
must be constantly recreated, and education, as an ongoing process
of reflection, action, and transformation, has a central role to
play in this process.
