- W2597694801 abstract "This article examines ways in which Socialism responded to Christianity in Edwardian Britain; a period in which there is a palpable efflorescence of theoretical and polemical literature on this theme, and a wide-ranging debate on the topic in the Socialist movement. This debate can be viewed from what one might term a per spective. The subtle and sophisticated treatment of the Judaeo-Christian tra dition by the Marxist Ernst Bloch raises the question of Christianity as a possible resource within Socialism. Furthermore, the soul search ing associated with the Future of Socialism debate has brought to prominence a series of claims concerning the efficacy of a Christian Socialism. Finally, the recent development of post-secular theory, with its desire to salvage the positive dimensions of both the religious and the secular, creates a new inter est in earlier attempts to explore both the potentialities and limitations of incor porating the religious into a new social order. Whilst the article is therefore primarily an attempt at historical recovery and taxonomy with all the metho dological imperatives required by this project, the modern resonances also make it, to use Michel Foucault's term, a piece of reflection in history.1 In deciding what exactly is to be construed as Utopian, two clear poles are to be avoided: the hyper-inclusive which defines as any mani festation of hope, imaginative construction, or counter-factual, where, in Adorno's words, everything borders on being nothing (210); and the hyper-exclusive which seeks to reduce the to a literary device invented by Thomas More in 1516, which, as Ernst Bloch notes, would be like trying to reduce electricity to the amber from which it gets its Greek name and in which it was first noticed (15). The category Utopian is used in this article to designate four different approaches. Firstly, there are those who are entirely happy with the term utopian, and use it as a self designa tion, as is the case with the Anglican Christian Socialist Percy Dearmer. Then there are those who are willing, even enthusiastic, to talk about their conceptions of a better society, but do not use the term utopian?these make up the bulk of the examples discussed. A third group comprises those who see themselves as non-utopian pragmatists, but who, nonetheless, develop conceptions of an alternative society; the Labour politician Ramsay MacDonald is one such case. Finally, there are those who consider them selves methodologically anti-utopian, as in the Marxist tradition, but who" @default.
