It explores how conventional activities are enacted in unusual ways within micro-social spaces where people engage in counter-hegemonic practices. Cooper examines those small-scale utopian projects that do not dream about a better world but struggle to create it. More than anything else, however, it is a book on concepts: how particular social sites develop new understandings of such concepts as equality, care, markets, touch, play and property and how the use of them contributes to social change. In doing so, the book challenges a treatment of concepts as exclusively ideational frames. Approaching concepts as the ceaseless movement between imagining and actualisation,\u00a0<em>Everyday utopias<\/em>\u00a0explores what happens when new concepts are put into practice, including the challenges, unexpected outcomes, and sometimes failures that arise.<br \/>\nMariano Croce (Sapienza \u2013 Universit\u00e0 di Roma) and Valeria Venditti (University of Glasgow and Sapienza \u2013 Universit\u00e0 di Roma) will present the forthcoming Italian translation (<em>Utopie quotidiane<\/em>, \u00a0Edizioni ETS 2016) of this important book by discussing its theoretical presuppositions and the rich potential outcomes on political theorizing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"txtMargleft60\">\n<p class=\"titleMagazine\"><b>15.00-17.30, seminar room<br \/>\nUniversity of Verona, Palazzo Zorzi (second floor)<br \/>\nLungadige Porta Vittoria, 17<br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"t3\">Poster of the seminar<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"downloadfile\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.dsu.univr.it\/politesse\/files\/Utopie%20quotidiane_[1467884bytes].pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Utopie quotidiane_[1467884bytes].pdf<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4401,"template":"","class_list":["post-4588","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.6.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Everyday Utopias - Politesse<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.dsu.univr.it\/politesse\/event\/everyday-utopias\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Everyday Utopias - Politesse\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Mariano Croce, Valeria Venditti Everyday utopias\u00a0by Davina Cooper, Professor of Law &amp; Political Theory at the University of Kent, is a hopeful and innovative book.
