UTOPIANISM REHABILITATIVE CAMPAIGN TO RETHINK OUR FUTURE
NOWADAYS THE CONCEPT OF UTOPIANISM SEEMS TO BE FALLEN IN DISUSE HOPELESSLY, STORED IN THE LAST CENTURY. AND YET, UTOPIANISM IS THE FUNDAMENTAL IDEA AT THE BASE OF WESTERN CULTURE AND SINCE PLATO’S AGES IT HAS REPRESENTED HUMAN BEING’S INBORN RATIONAL DESIRE OF PLANNING A BETTER FUTURE, THROUGH A CONCRETE PRACTICE. TODAY, AS NEVER BEFORE, WE NEED TO REHABILITATE THIS CONCEPT TO RETHINK OUR FUTURE.
THE LACK OF UTOPIANISM
INTENDED AS HUMAN ABILITY OF SOCIAL AND POLITICAL PLANNING, MEANS
LACK OF FUTURE. BE OPEN–MINDED
TOWARDS NEW POSSIBILITIES OF
WELFARE SOCIETY.
TODAY POLITICS STRUGGLE WITH GOING BEYOND PRESENT. A CREDIBLE FUTURE IS MORE AND MORE FAR OFF. RIGHT–WING WESTERN POPULIST PARTIES CONFIGURE A CLOSED SOCIETY BASED ON INTEGRALISM, ULTRANATIONALISM, RACISM, PROTECTIONISM AND AUTHORITARIANISM AS THE BEST SOLUTION TO SOLVE CONTEMPORARY CONFLICTS. THE COMPLEXITY OF THE CULTURAL PLURALISM AND THE GLOBAL NEOLIBERALISM DESERVES FORWARD–THINKING PONTS OF VIEW. DON’T REACT TO INEQUALITIES BULDING WALLS.
UTOPIANISM IS EVERYTHING BUT DREAM.
UTOPIANISM IS ABOUT
REAL SOLUTIONS FOR A BETTER SOCIAL CO–EXISTENCE.
NEOLIBERALISM
PRIVATIZES PROFITS AND SOCIALIZES RISKS. EXTERNAL CUTTING–EDGE SOLUTIONS COULD PROVOKE A TOTAL COLLAPSE. DESIGN INNER
INTERVENTIONS
ABLE TO REORGANISE STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS. FIND INTERNAL WAYS, DON’T CRY OUT FOR PAST MODELS,
LOOK AHEAD.
DON’T TRUST IN FUNDAMENTALISMS. LET’S TRUST IN MANKIND.
UTOPIANISM IS THE IMPLICIT EVOLUTIONARY POTENTIALITY OF ANY SOCIAL SYSTEM.
DO YOU REALLY WANT NIGEL FARAGE (UK), MARINE LE PEN (FRANCE), BEPPE GRILLO (ITALY), RUMEN RADEEV (BULGARIA), KRISTIAN DAHL (DENMARK), ANDREJ BABIS (CZECH REP.) TO WIPE OUT EUROPEAN SOCIAL MOBILITY ? IN LESS THAN A YEAR EUROPEAN UNION RISKS TO FALL DOWN UNDER RADICAL RIGHT AND POPULIST BLOWS. NEOLIBERALISM AND GLOBALIZATION CAN’T BE DELETED OVERNIGHT. DON’T RESORT TO OLD MISLEADING IDEOLOGIES, LET’S EVOLVE OUR SOCIAL ACT, AIM AT THE FUTURE.
DON’T ACCEPT
BREXIT, TRUMP FEVER AND HIERARCAL PUTIN AS
MODELS OF OUR TIME.
UTOPIANISM IS ABOUT HOW PEOPLE ARRANGE THEIR LIFE, ENVISIONING A RADICALLY DIFFERENT SOCIETY. UTOPIANISM IS A WAY OF THINKING FOCUSED ON EVERYDAY LIFE AS WELL AS MATTERS CONCERNED WITH ECONOMIC, POLITICAL AND SOCIAL QUESTIONS. UTOPIANISM IS LIFE’S INHERENT STRENGHT OF IMPROVEMENT AND OVERCOMING OF THE REAL.
FUNDAMENTALISM IS ABOUT PROPHECIES. UTOPIANISM IS ABOUT HUMAN BEING.
IDEOLOGISM DEALS WITH THE PAST. UTOPIANISM LOOKS AT THE FUTURE.
WILL FUTURE BE POST-LITERATE?
REFLECT ON CONTEMPORANEITY. DEVELOP INTERPRETATIONS.
DON’T LET DISINTEREST WIN. DON’T LET IGNORANT KNOW–ALL DECIDE OUR FUTURE.
BE SKEPTICAL. BE CONSTRUCTIVE.
BE A CRITICAL INQUIRER OF PRESENT. UTOPIANISM IS PRINCIPLE OF HOPE.
PRESENT SHOULD NOT BE SYNONYM OF DISORIENTATION
WE NEED UTOPIANISM NOW
