Product Overview

Traces the role of utopian thinking as the rationale for religious wars, genocide, enslavement, plunder, economic domination, and campaigns of world conquest from the time of the ancient Greeks. This book examines the hidden dynamic within utopian thinking and the danger it poses when it is adopted by groups who use it to serve their interests.
