      <abstract xml:lang="en">
        <p>The volume reconstructs the utopian tensions present within positivism, generally projected towards imaginary descriptions of the future, starting from Comte's System of Positive Politics which describes an ideal society based on collaboration between different classes. The temptation to describe the future in terms of the realisation of perfection is common to many other authors close to positivism. However, the book points out how an "althist" approach could sometimes create a picture that isn’t very confident, but rather worried of its consequences on human qualities, of a world too based on technology and on the materialistic values of economic progress.</p>

      <abstract xml:lang="it">
        <p>Il volume ricostruisce le tensioni utopiche presenti nel positivismo, proiettate in genere verso descrizioni immaginarie del futuro, partendo dal Sistema di politica positiva di Comte in cui si descrive una società ideale basata sulla collaborazione fra classi diverse. La tentazione di descrivere il futuro in termini di realizzazione della perfezione accomuna molti altri autori vicini al positivismo. Tuttavia il libro evidenzia come le operazioni ucroniche alimentino talvolta un'immagine non fiduciosa, ma anzi preoccupata per le sue conseguenze sulla qualità umane, di un mondo troppo fondato sulla tecnologia e sui valori materiali dello sviluppo economico.
