About Retropia

Retropia is a thought-provoking concept introduced by sociologist Zygmunt Bauman in his final book, Retropia: The Retrotopian Impulse in Late Modernity. It describes a cultural and political tendency in modern societies to idealize and seek refuge in the past, rather than envisioning a hopeful future. In a world marked by rapid technological change, economic insecurity, and global uncertainty, many people retreat into nostalgic visions of a "better yesterday." Bauman argues that this backward-looking mindset—seen in nationalism, traditionalism, and populist politics—signals a loss of faith in progress and the future. Instead of striving to solve present challenges with innovation and solidarity, societies look to recreate perceived golden ages. Retropia serves as both a diagnosis and a warning: that clinging to a romanticized past may prevent us from addressing urgent contemporary issues and imagining inclusive, forward-looking solutions in a complex, interconnected world.
