either a utopia or a dystopia‚ or both. I believe that what such imagining allows us is to do is locate ourselves within a type of dialectic of the best possible or worst possible outcomes that our own historical conditions may lead us to. By imagining utopian and dystopic cities we are alerted to the ethical and moral implications that constantly changing social structures‚ always under continual sway by developments in technology‚ hold for communities in cities.
