In this title, originally published in 1950, the author has set out
to give a description and a critical assessment of the most
important (not necessarily the most famous) Utopian writings since
Plato first gave, in his Republic, a literary form to the dreams of
a Golden Age and of ideal societies which had doubtless been
haunting man since the beginning of the conscious discussion of
social problems. It is more than a mere compilation and criticism
of Utopias, it brings out in a striking way the close and fateful
relationship between Utopian thought and social reality, and takes
its place among the important books which had appeared in the
previous few years, warning us, from various points of view, of the
doom that awaits those who are foolish enough to put their trust in
an ordered and regimented world.
