This tenth installment of the Architecture Words series is based on five MA presentations at the AA School all on the subject of utopia by Anthony Vidler, professor at the School of Architecture at The Cooper Union, New York City.

In these five resulting essays, Anthony Vidler presents not a descriptive history of utopias, but a series of questions and problematics that have emerged throughout history when utopian thought, as derived from literary and philosophical genres, has been spatialised by architects and urbanists.
