The chapter examines 19th-century utopian thought shaped by industrialisation and urbanisation. Fourier's Phalanstery envisions a harmonious community balancing passion and labour, while Richardson's Hygeia prioritises public health and liveable space. From Barnett's ideal city to Butler's satirical Erewhon, the chapter traces how utopian imagination shifted toward concrete social reform amid growing ambivalence about science and progress.
