Overview
- Explores the nature of social reform, the future of capitalism, and the feasibility of socialist, communitarian economic structures
- Argues that social reform movements and organizations were overlapping and interdependent in their membership, challenging narratives that frame social reform causes in the US as independent entities
- Examines the lives of intentional community members after their time living in the community, thus providing information on the long-term impacts of these communities on the lives of individuals
