The Dispossessed has been described by political theorist Andr Gorz as The most striking description I know of the seductions--and snares--of self-managed communist or, in other words, anarchist society. However this claim, as well as the political, social, and cultural importance of the novel, remain woefully under-explored to this day. New Utopian Politics of Ursula K. Le Guin's The Dispossessed, an edited collection of original essays on Le Guin's The Dispossessed represents a thorough exploration of the political ramifications of this work by a wide interdisciplinary swath of scholars from around the world.
