Description
[Machine Translation] An ideal society that can be realized, or a society that is too controlled? This is the first complete translation of A Modern Utopia ( 1905), an experimental novel about a united world state run by a group of brilliant samurai on another Earth beyond Sirius. Wells' vision of an advanced society was both a critique of the times and a proposal for a more modern and pragmatic step-by-step transformation that would overcome the utopian vision of his predecessors. The possibilities and limitations of the ideals Wells continued to pursue are revealed in this book. A translator's commentary is included to shed light on the ideological background and issues of this work.
