Perfect Utopian Society

The connotations of a paradise, or a utopia, are that of a flawless society where its patrons do not pursue nor indulge in the near inherit need for materialistic conquests; however, such is not possible as demonstrated by real life occurrences and the certainty of human expansion. America has pushed past its parameters, seeking more territory within its frontiers as the demand for land rises with its population; it’s because of the exponential growth of mankind that utopias cannot be sought. Varieties of different dispositions cannot be merged, and because of such shows the flaw that human nature has in its design: diversity. Yet America embraces its diversity and advertises itself as a country accepting of all different backgrounds—so one can postulate that maybe America is a

Between the 1820’s and 1860’s, Americans were trying new things and promoting different ideas and ways of thinking. Once such idea is that of a utopian society. A utopian society, simple put, means a perfect society.

What would be considered necessary to create a perfect world? Parts that would be thought of as necessities for a utopia would be universal access to food and shelter, everyone is able to find a job, and everyone is happy. The society in Brave New World is an example of a successful utopia because it has everything most within their world would consider necessary for a perfect society. One reason why their world is an example of a successful utopia is that everyone is happy, or at least content with their lives when they are participating in the world as intended.

At first glance, Aldous Huxley's Brave New World feels quite odd and out of place. Reading a story about a “perfect society” where people do not feel or think for themselves does not make for much lighthearted conversation. However, after taking a closer look, deeper meaning begins to seep through this tale. Through Bernard's initial views on his society's leniency towards casual sex, society's use of the drug soma, and Mustapha Mond's explanation as to why God becomes obsolete in a perfect society, this utopian-set story serves as a warning to modern society of what may come to fruition in the future.

Ever heard of a society that is perfect from sex and drugs neither have I. In the novel Brave New World it seems that a way a perfect society for humans. With Community, Identity, and Stability three things our society needs. Is the Brave new world society perfect though? In Brave new world society there slogan does not show there unconnected community, No identity, and Instability.

Brave New World explicitly states that their society rejects people with abnormalities that make them differ from everybody else in the apparent utopian society. This is a society in which prejudice is extremely common and acceptable and at times would be encouraged among the civilians. In Brave New World, people are genetically engineered in a laboratory and categorized into five different castes, The five different castes are rendered into different magnitudes of skills and intellects, based upon how well they will be able to do in the future also how socially acceptable they will stand. In which alpha is the highest, Epsilons the lowest. The Alphas can be viewed as the geeks in school, while the Epsilons basically do the grunt work such as shoveling, and picking up trash. In their society, it is acceptable to criticize based upon looks and actions. If a person looks or acts different, the “perfect” society initiates in awkward stares and glances. Once somebody acts a little different from the norm this society spreads absurd rumors about them. In this “perfect” society civilians can only associate with the people in their same caste.

This society is full of violence and drugs which affect innocent people every day. This society is so corrupted it is really hard to trust anyone. The society of Bluefield is different from any other society. Bluefield was founded to make a difference and to encourage the rest of the world to change. Bluefield offers peace, comfort and a lot of happiness, it is different because it also offers free beds and free insurance. Bluefield will be different from this society.

A utopia is what everyone is aiming for, but is that really what they are getting? With the hopes of a perfect society, we the people are rushing for a drastic change in the way things work without giving too much care in which direction things are changing, and that can and will cause definite issues. In the hopes to rush into a perfect world, too many people are treating government like a roulette wheel and hoping for the best, even though all odds are against them. In doing so, they are setting themselves up for a more controlled tomorrow.

One of the major themes Mitchell plays with in his novel is the concept of a utopian society, and what it is comprised of. In each story, there is a setup for a ‘perfect’ society, but humanity, or humanity’s spirit got in the way. Each story represents how the interpretation of things can shape a society, depending on how literal they take the events. In the story “Sloosha’s Crossin’ an’ Everythin’ After”, the tales are in place to develop the role of each character. Zachry fights his inner demons, just as Truman Napes does with Old Georgie. Zachry chooses to protect and befriend Meronym, even though it goes against his initial judgement. Meronym fights for the overall good of the people just as the crow does in “Prescient yarnie”. She goes out and lives with the villagers to gather information, and saves Zachry’s sister. She is making diplomatic decisions to take on the risk of changing the course of things by helping her. The function of Zachry and Meronym are to be foils of each other, even the story is told from the biased perspective of Zachry. Meronym is focused on long term goals, and the redevelopment of society, while Zachry is very much focused on the present time, and the folklore that affects his day to day life.

At first glance, it would seem that we live in a utopian society. Everything is nearly perfect — we enjoy better health, have more free time, and live better lives overall than those who lived in 18th century America. It would seem to these early Americans that the country’s society today is living the perfect life.

An extremely thin line exists between perfection and utter disaster. A society may appear to be idealistic from the outside looking in, but in reality, knowledgeable people living in these worlds know deep down that the society is corrupt. A utopian society is considered “an imagined place or state of things in which everything is perfect” (“Utopia”). Since a utopian society is not realistically feasible, it generally spirals into a dystopia. This is a society identified by “human misery, as squalor, oppression, disease, and overcrowding” (“Dystopias”). Utopias devolve to dystopias for a variety of reasons, which all typically relate back to the misuse of total control and the restriction of independence. A utopia is simply unattainable since nothing is perfect and not everyone in society will always be pleased. Even though rulers use all of their willpower to make their followers believe that nothing can go wrong, but there will always be people who see through this masquerade. The Party in 1984 and the Handicapper General in Harrison Bergeron use these techniques and others to establish their dominance over everyone else. The news station Fox News, specifically CEO Roger Ailes, dictates how his company is run in the same nature as a figurehead in a dystopian novel would. Although utopias and dystopias are thought to be complete opposites, in 1984, Harrison Bergeron, and Fox News the two types of societies intertwine through the use of propaganda,

A utopia sounds like a wonderful thing. The Oxford English Dictionary defines “utopia” as an “imagined or hypothetical place, system, or state of existence in which everything is perfect, esp. in respect of social structure, laws, and politics.” (OED, 2015, entry 2) But what happens when someone tries to bring this imagined land of perfection into reality? Both in fictional literature and in real life applications, utopian dreams destroy societies.

In a perfect utopian society everyone gets what they need because communication, understanding, and open mindedness of different ideas would be key. In order for a society to be a utopia, everyone has to be comfortable and be provided with their wants and needs and everything needs to function perfectly. In order for function and equality, people must compromise in thoughts and ideas to provide for everyone. To do that, one must have a good understanding of why others may think differently and have the ability to accept that. One of the many reasons our Earth is not a utopia is because of the competition and contradictory understandings of people, and the inability to accept other’s ideas. You do not have to believe what others believe, but respect for separate thought would make the world better. If everyone had their thoughts heard, were more sympathetic of different ideas and more capable of compromise, then there would possibly not be such gaps in social standing and humans dying from lack of basic needs while others bathe in gold.

My utopian society consists of three important characteristics, these characteristics are: justice (equality), economic security, and world peace. These characteristics are essential to creating my ideal society. The reason why I believe these characteristics are important is because justice provides equality to all people living in the society. The idea of justice also allows everyone to agree on which actions or words are considered just or unjust. Economic security establishes a strong government that provides welfare and security to all people living in the society. And lastly world peace allows for the people to live in the society without any internal or external fear, such as war and/or crime.
