1HISTORY UTOPIANS
In the article provided, the author Akash Kapur had spoken about the conditions of
the world in the previous times and the importance of Marxism as well as the social and the
political reform movements of the nineteenth century and how such movements can play an
important role in making a perfect utopia in the world itself.
The purpose of this essay is to analyse what the author had stated about the topic
of society and the reform movements.
In the article, the author has talked about the social theorists like Frederick Jameson
as well as the poet Wislawa Szymborska and how they have commented on the social and the
political matters of the society itself and the ways in which the social and the political
movements of the past played a role in helping the society to become one where the humans
can live together peacefully (Barker, 2014).
Thus, from the above discussions, it can be concluded that the article talks about the
subject matter of equality as well as the various social and political movements which takes
place in the society itself. This is what the author has talked about in the essay itself (Wright,
2014).
