Episode Description

A Fantasy Terrorist Variation: A Little Learning by Robert Crighton. This is a new variation from a series of dramas about the war on terror and related themes, written over the last ten years. This piece is a response to the the attacks on education in various countries as an extension of terrorist activity, and more specifically the kidnapping of school children in Nigeria. Though fictional and deliberately non specific in terms of where or when it is set, this short drama is based on real reports of horrific acts committed around the world and is not for the faint hearted.

Engels begins by chronicaling the thought of utopian socialists, starting with Saint-Simon. He then proceeds to Fourier and Robert Owen.
