There is a constant tension, as we will see in the round table, in the issue of utopia between the reality that is to be corrected, what exists and what is to be corrected.
There has often been an emphasis in utopian tradition on the idea of an attainable good and on the impossible perfection in which utopia becomes the expression of finitude and imperfection in view of the aspirations of ethical correctness, for example. Moreover, there has been a tension between revolutionary invocation and conservative irony in submission.
Utopia always appears to be a two-faced subject affected not only by political thought but also bordered by the issue of poetry and religion. This round table solely intends to outline some of the points in this tradition. Each of the speakers has something personal and particular to contribute to this examination. This will not result in a traditional academic analysis but rather the idea is to gather the experience of these people who have worked on the issue from heterogeneous perspectives, both from the point of their philosophical position as well as their discipline or task.
