Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
The distinguished social critic Richard Sennett here shows how the excessively ordered community freezes adults--both the young idealists and their security-oriented parents--into rigid attitudes that stifle personal growth. He argues that the accepted ideal of order generates patterns of behavior among the urban middle classes that are stultifying, narrow, and violence-prone. And he proposes a functioning city that can incorporate anarchy, diversity, and creative disorder to bring into being adults who can openly respond to and deal with the challenge of life.
Review:
""Sennett has ended up writing the best available contemporary defense of anarchism....The issues [he] raises are fundamental and profound. His book is utopian in the best sense-it tries to define a radically different future and to show that it would be constructed from the materials at home."
Denis De Rougemont
