SUMMARY:Thrutopia
DESCRIPTION:Join!\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				We can benefit from imagining\, ideating\, and criticizing utopias and dystopias\, but what about right now? Utopias are unachievable and dystopias are undesirable\, so what worlds should we inhabit and build\, especially now and in the near future? In the pursuit of utopia and in the rejection of dystopia\, we encounter Thrutopia. \nAs philosopher and writer Rupert Read originally envisioned it\, “What are desperately needed\, but as yet barely exist\, are what I term thrutopias. Thrutopias would be about how to get from here to there\, where ‘there’ is far far away in time. How to live and love and vision and carve out a future\, through pressed times that will endure. The climate crisis is going to be a long emergency\, probably lasting hundreds of years. It is useless to fantasise a shining sheer escape from it to utopia. But it’s similarly useless\, dangerously defeatist\, to wallow around in dystopias. We need ways of seeing\, understanding\, inhabiting\, creating what will be needed for the very long haul. Visioning the politics and ecology of getting through.” \nJoin us this week as we explore what thrutopia could look like and mean in this stage of modernity and its ongoing collapse. \n Thrutopia newsletter \nRecommended Resources \nThrutopian Dreams with Manda Scott on Sounds of SAND podcast \nTHRUTOPIA: Why Neither Dystopias Nor Utopias Are Enough To Get Us Through The Climate Crisis\, And How A ‘Thrutopia’ Could Be by Rupert Read \nWhy building inspiring alternatives is necessary to counter authoritarianism by Barbara Peterson \nThe Way Out is Through: On Thrutopia with Manda Scott\, a conversation by advaya \n  \n
