The Post-Utopian Imagination: American Culture in the Long 1950s
M. Keith Booker
In America, the long 1950s were marked by an intense skepticism toward utopian alternatives to the existing capitalist order. This was related to the Cold War and the demonization of socialism. This text studies how American novels and films of this era reflect the loss of the utopian imagination.
