Name of the page: real utopian sociology or emancipatory social science
editHi, I just submitted a page for emancipatory social science (https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Draft:Emancipatory_social_science) to be reviewed. I suggested that it should either redirect to real utopian sociology or that real utopian sociology should be merged with it. The reason is that I see Erik Olin Wright referring a lot to emancipatory social science and when I google that, this page doesn't come up in the results but several other irrelevant wiki pages do. I probably should have raised this issue here first, before submitting a new page for review (I joined about 3 weeks ago, so am still learning.). So I am wondering what the best name for this page is, and how we might incorporate both names in such a way that people using Google will wind up here.
I should also note that I intend to be adding content here in the near future, since it looks like the page almost got deleted a few years ago and has only a "stub" rating at the moment.
I look forward to hearing anyone's thoughts.

EDIT: fixed a typo above, and also wanted to note that the page I submitted was turned down because I didn't use the right process for establishing a redirect, but will hold off on doing it the right way for the moment in case anyone wants to chime in. I will also start making the edits soon, that I mentioned above, to expand/improve the stub.
Content
editHi, I wanted to expand on the underlying principles that shaped Erik Olin Wright's work. I find this interesting and want this page to contain more substance. Real utopian sociology is founded in the belief that current capitalist structures breed inequality, and so it seeks alternatives that can be both visionary and pragmatically implementable. The term "real utopias" suggests that social change is possible through exploring realistic models of governance, economic distribution, and social structures. Wright’s work combines theory with practical, empirically grounded pathways, balancing idealism with reality.
