Sumari:This book originates from a question concerning the relationship between politics and care, understood as the ability to relate and listen, take responsibility and be aware of human vulnerability. This field of study aims to rethink the public sphere, including a series of activities which, taken together, not only involve many people (particularly women, even today), but also occupy them for most of their time. However, references to care are not very common in political discourse, with the exception of the utopian tradition. This volume aims to reflect on the ways in which utopia has imagined care work and, conversely, to investigate the disturbing scenarios outlined by dystopias, which present us with situations of negligence, inattention and neglect. The unease that lurks within them evokes fear rather than hope: they are true Scaring Futures. But the binomials utopia/dystopia and care/neglect do not always lend themselves to a univocal interpretation, as there are dystopias that contemplate utopias and utopias that are such only in the eyes of some. But perhaps it is precisely through this ambivalence that utopian-dystopian scenarios of care help us to imagine our future.
