The book begins with a discussion of the utopian tradition, from its origins in the Renaissance to its flowering in the 19th century. The author argues that utopianism was a product of the industrial revolution, and that it served to provide a vision of a better future in the face of the dislocations and injustices of capitalism.
However, the author also argues that utopianism has entered into a period of decline in the 20th century. This is due to a number of factors, including the failure of many utopian experiments, the rise of consumerism, and the increasing individualism of modern society.
In the second part of the book, the author explores the emergence of new forms of living in the post-industrial era. These forms of living are characterized by their rejection of traditional notions of work and family, and by their embrace of new technologies and social networks.
The author argues that these new forms of living are a response to the decline of utopianism. They offer a way to live in the present without the need for a vision of a better future.
The Eclipse of the Utopias of Labor is a major contribution to the understanding of contemporary society. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the future of work, family, and community.
