It may be brightly coloured, multi-coloured, or a simple single colour; it may be made of expensive material, of cotton or Lycra; it may spread across the hips or leave them largely bare with just a thong or string at the back; or it…
Law and the Utopian Imagination seeks to explore and resuscitate the notion of utopianism within current legal discourse. The idea of utopia has fascinated the imaginations of important thinkers for ages. And yet—who writes seriously on the idea of utopia today? The mid-century critique appears to have carried the day, and a belief in the very possibility of utopian achievements appears to have flagged in the face of a world marked by political instability, social upheaval, and dreary market realities. Instead of mapping out the contours of a familiar terrain, this book seeks to explore the possibilities of a productive engagement between the utopian and the legal imagination. The book asks: is it possible to re-imagine or revitalize the concept of utopia such that it can survive the terms of the mid-century liberal critique? Alternatively, is it possible to re-imagine the concept of utopia and the theory of liberal legality so as to dissolve the apparent antagonism between the two? In charting possible answers to these questions, the present volume hopes to revive interest in a vital topic of inquiry too long neglected by both social thinkers and legal scholars.

Umbrella for day 19 of februllage 2022 on instagram
If you are new to my page, hi and welcome! I’m a self-taught digital artist, I have been using photoshop for over ten years (I’ve been using a mouse guys lol) and Ableton for like a month. I have a million different interests as a creative and like to post my adventures on social media. I sell prints but looks and listens are free (and I’m open to constructive feedback & tips.) I actually busted out my old bamboo tablet for this and made the details in the background with a digital paintbrush. I’m a little upset I didn’t try that sooner, pens are far superior to mice. I’m decently stubborn (Aries cusp/mercury,) but once I learn something it’s like riding a bike and I’ve basically got stacks and stacks of bikes (everywhere.) My son and I practiced making abstracts with the tablet, he thought the pen was magic and it IS because ART/music is MAGIC! I’m going to be sticking to collage art/photo manipulation/music for now, but if you are relatively new to digital art or you are hella stubborn like me and you’re on the fence, get yourself a pen and tablet. It’s sooo worth it! I have so much more control than with a mouse. A mouse can write or erase, pressure is important, I didn’t realize how important until last night.
Prints of this one will are live now on RedBubbleandSociety6, she’d be a cute magnet or puzzle (society6 is offering 20%-40% off until Monday!) Does anyone do puzzles anymore? (No, not figuring out social media algorithms, you know, the little pieces that fit together to make a picture?) I hope you all are enjoying your weekend! Follow me here and other society media (links in linktree) for more!
I am so glad I have exercised my imagination often and vigorously, in fact it takes me places no one has gone before, and I have made things entirely new. so welcome. so rare.
