In what ways could one argue that the ideals of the various communes in Modern Utopia are similar to—or even extensions of—New Left values and sentiments as expressed in the Port Huron Statement?

Paper details

Write a three (3) page paper addressing the following questions. Please use 12 point font, 1-inch margins with double spacing.

This is a document-based question. If you do not use the documents, or use them little, you have not done the assignment well. You’ll have to read through each with a careful eye, while keeping class discussions in mind.

You should refrain from using too many quotes or overly-long ones—use them for powerful effect when warranted. Cite using the following method: for the Port Huron Statement, (PHS, 7); for Modern Utopia, (MU, 6). For Modern Utopia, the page numbers are mine (though I only numbered 1 through 6, you can imagine the next are 7,8, and so on).

Question:
In what ways could one argue that the ideals of the various communes in Modern Utopia are similar to—or even extensions of—New Left values and sentiments as expressed in the Port Huron Statement? Conversely, how could one argue that these communes are, in many ways, betrayals of the goals/values of Port Huron?
