utopian socialism, n.All

Utopian socialism (n.) replaces ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠historical action with personal invention, and the proletariat's own organisation with a society contrived by its inventors.

Utopian socialism (n.) at ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠bottom only idealizes present society: it takes a picture of it without shadows and puts the brainwork of individual pedants in place of common social production.
