Book Synopsis
When the renowned social scientist Erik Olin Wright passed away in 2019 at the height of his intellectual powers, he left behind an unfinished project intended to forge a connection between class analysis and real utopias. In taking up this project, the essays in this volume pay tribute to his generative theory, crystalline thinking, inspirational teaching, and personal generosity.

- 'Friends of the late Erik Olin Wright celebrate his life and work with essays about his lifelong preoccupations with analytical Marxism and the transformation of capitalist societies. The result is a beautiful book that glows with intelligence, optimism, and love.' FRANCES FOX PIVEN
- 'Erik Wright succumbed to cancer while he was advancing a decades-long project of envisioning real utopias—designs for a workable socialism. The essays in this superb volume recount this monumental undertaking and also advance it in significant ways.' VIVEK CHIBBER
- 'Erik Olin Wright devote
