A classic of utopian literature, more urgent than ever: Buckminster Fullers provocative blueprint for the futureComposed of lectures given by Buckminster Fuller throughout the world in the 1960s, Utopia or Oblivion presents the thesis that humanity, for the first time in its history, has the opportunity to create a world where the needs of 100% of humanity are met. Fullers grandson, in the introduction, refers to this selection as hardcore Bucky, as these essays display Fullers investigations into mathematics, geometry and how they intersect with the arts, music and world peace. In Fullers words, This is what man tends to call utopia. Its a fairly small word, but inadequate to describe the extraordinary new freedom of man in a new relationship to universe--the alternative of which is oblivion. First published in 1969 and then reprinted by Lars M ller in 2008, Utopia or Oblivion also includes one of the earliest published discussions of Fullers World Game, a revolutionary game that set as the goal for players, that the world works for 100% of humanity to nobodys disadvantage. It challenged players to overlook traditional world units such as nations, states and other political and economic divisions.
