UTOPOLY - playing as a tool to reimagine our future: an interview with Neil
Farnan
By Francesca Baglietto
The 1904 game of Monopoly was intended to show how landlords accumulate wealth
and impoverish society, but today's version normalises competitive land
grabbing and rentier behaviour. Francesca Baglietto interviews Neil Farnan
about Utopoly - a 'hack' of Monopoly that engages people's imagination and
ideas for a better society.
