Resumo:This article seeks to examine the ideas of Charles Fourier, writer of the nineteen century usually regarded as a "utopian socialist". An introduction to the Utopian Socialism in the nineteenth century, including comments on other utopian socialists as Saint-Simon and Robert Owen, prepares a more specific analysis of the main issues presented by Fourier in his proposal for a phalanstery. Issues related to social criticism directed by Charles Fourier against industrial society of his time, are also examined.
