This idea leaves nobody indifferent. Whatever the hardship that its concretization implies, however, once it does materialize, it cannot, as such avoid new challenges, tensions and unexpected claims. This means, at varying degrees, negations of, and removals from, the "utopian inspiration". Humans are able to create unprecedented conditions of life under most ambitious inspirations, but are unable to safeguard their achievements from change, alterations and contradictions. In this, however, another aspect of the utopian realizations is that they ultimately leave room for new utopist thinking and enrolment. As far, indeed, the utopian inspiration draws its vitality from potent civilizational codes, its renewal from ashes is as unavoidable as its self-betrayal through materialization."--Publisher's website. 000693505 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000693505 650_0 $$aCollective settlements. 000693505 650_0 $$aCommunal living. 000693505 650_0 $$aUtopian socialism. 000693505 7001_ $$aṬopel, Menaḥem. 000693505 7001_ $$aBen Rafael, Eliezer. 000693505 7001_ $$aOved, Iaácov. 000693505 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tCommunal idea in the 21st century.$$dLeiden ; Boston : Brill, 2013$$z9789004207455$$w(DLC) 2012028845$$w(OCoLC)801219526 000693505 830_0 $$aInternational comparative social studies ;$$v30. 000693505 8520_ $$bacq 000693505 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000693505 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete 000693505 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1037114$$zOnline Access 000693505 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1037114$$zOnline Access 000693505 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:693505$$pGLOBAL_SET 000693505 980__ $$aEBOOK$$aEBOOK 000693505 980__ $$aBIB 000693505 982__ $$aEbook 000693505 983__ $$aOnline
