Equality (1897) is a novel by Edward Bellamy. The sequel to
Bellamy's bestselling novel Looking Backward, 2000-1887 (1888) is a
product of decades of work on the socialist theories that
captivated thousands of Americans and inspired the formation of the
People's Party. Although Bellamy died before his vision could be
realized, many of the ideas that circulate in Equality-including
vegetarianism, feminism, and the abolition of private
capital-continue to inform left-wing politics today. "He learned
that there were no longer any who were or could be richer or poorer
than others, but that all were economic equals. He learned that no
one any longer worked for another, either by compulsion or for
hire, but that all alike were in the service of the nation working
for the common fund, which all equally shared..." After a century
in a hypnosis-induced coma, Julian West emerges to a fundamentally
different world. Shocked at first, he soon understands that the
changes made to the American economy at the tail end of the Gilded
Age were not only just, but entirely necessary. In this sequel to
Looking Backward, 2000-1887, Bellamy provides more detail on the
theories which informed the construction of a revolutionary
socialist utopia in the United States. With a beautifully designed
cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Edward
Bellamy's Equality is a classic of American literature reimagined
for modern readers.
