Abstract

Political theory has been historically rich with commentaries taking the form of utopias. The collection reviewed here revisits this genre through short stories using sci-fi projects as entry points. Written by 12 Palestinian writers, Palestine +100 poses the question of what utopia means for the colonized. The book offers crucial insights into how utopia, as a mode of political theorizing, could leave behind its Eurocentric parochialism and construct alternatives to it.
