Abstract
Bernard Shaw’s drama Major Barbara (1905) revives the pre-modern notion of utopia in order to explore the interrelations between the modernist avant-garde, capitalist urban culture, and the global arms trade, and in doing so bears a more complex relation to cultural modernism and the workings of neoliberal free-market capitalism than previously acknowledged.
