Recommended: Utopia and society

In a perfect world, one would find that there would only be peace amongst everything and everyone. One could imagine just how difficult it would be to form a utopia, especially when observing and understanding the various societies in today’s world. Wiping the world’s slate clean would allow for the commencing of a new beginning, utopia. A utopia would contain a perfect government, justice system, economic structure, and human relationships. A positive balance in human relationships is needed order to begin the process of achieving peace in a society. Furthermore, each individual’s viewpoint needs to embrace the difference amongst all people, (King & Regan, 2009). There should be no stereotyping that could influence another individual’s …show more content…

Relationships fill a need between two or more people, (King & Regan, 2009). Consequently, respect is the sole foundation of all relationships in this utopia, (King & Regan, 2009). Family relationships are based on truth and trust, a strong bond that cannot be broken. Reliability is the pure structure of friendships. The foundation for romantic relationships is in the hands of trust and the ability to keep the initial friendship strong while allowing the other individual to be completely vulnerable without hesitation or fear. Each of these various relationships allows the individuals to feel good about their selves and secure, (King & Regan, …show more content…

The basic laws of the society are as follows: one shall not kill; one shall not steal; one shall not do any harm to any human being; one should always tell the truth; one should treat others the way you want to be treated; one should always use verbal communication to express their feelings; one should always help others in need; one should be kind and show compassion to all; and meditation and community service is a weekly priority. Consequently, physical or verbal altercations will be handled by the local authorities with an intense behavioral community service plan to formulate “positivism” and new behavior of the offender similar to Skinner’s principles of operant conditioning, (Hunt, 2007; Moxley,

    Utopian societies are often thought to be impractical based upon the human idea that no one person or thing can ever be completely perfect. Because this idea of perfection is practically impossible to achieve, various controlled techniques need to be used in order to create a utopia. Aldous Huxley states in his foreword to Brave New World that the creation of a perfect utopia is quite possible if we as humans “refrain from blowing ourselves to smithereens” in attempts at creating social stability (xiv). Huxley’s Brave New World “depicts a World State where there is absolute social stability made possible by government-controlled research in biology and psychology” (Woiak 4). While the existence of this utopian

    This serene society greatly contradicts the one we live in. Our society is furnished with hatred and warfare, yet in return, we are given freedom and the privilege of having distinctive characters. Given the nature of human beings, our society is more idealistic to live in. Utopia is an imaginary state, which consists of people who believe they are more capable of living in a group than alone. In such a community, the welfare of the group is the primary interest compared to the comfort of individuals.

  • Utopias Do Not Exist Research Paper

    What makes a utopia? A utopia can mean a world without war and struggle, or for some people it can mean a place where everyone can be equal. The word "utopia" literally means "an imagined place or state of things in which everything is perfect," but it comes from the greek phrase "no place.” That being said, the definition itself shows that utopias do not exist. Humans we are imperfect; people make mistakes everyday, it is just how we learn and become better version of ourselves. It is impossible for a utopia to exist due to the instinctual tendency of human beings to cause social, religious, and political disputes.

    ...arn, and cannot be made to forget. Humans all think differently, and can only cooperate to compensate. We cannot feel exactly the same on all of our subjects; therefore, in the process of being human, we are forced to work together, to mold our ideas together, and bring the best from all of our ideas, not just a single one. Humans all take things for granted and want to take the best that we as a race can make it, perfect. Perfection does not exist in this country, or even on Earth itself. Everything, living or not, has flaws, no matter how deeply buried, but not a utopia, nor perfection itself. A utopia simply cannot exist because it is perfect, and our planet, our world, our universe, is not. Perfection is only a thought that exists in our imaginations, and our thoughts, so all attempts to make it a reality, are doomed to creating Oppression, Sorrow, and Death.

  • The Utopian Impulse

    In Utopias, as in the Garden, one must give as much of oneself as possible to the society so that there is plenty to distribute to all members. The fall and the subsequent banishment from the perfect existence within the Garden serves as an example of how corruption has removed humanity from its golden age, or the “original period of human felicity, [the] idyllic state of ease, harmony, peace, and plenty” (Murfin and Ray 205). Humanity, having been educated in the perfection of the past, and the possibilities that morality, tolerance, and communitarianism can offer us for future betterment, continues to seek redemption to this lost age. Utopian philosophy and literature has served as the tool with which humanity can explore the possibilities of these preferable existences.

  • Examples Of Utopia In Brave New World

    Utopia, a term that appeared in the 16th century, was invented by Sir Thomas More in 1516. Many define utopia to be an idealistic and utterly perfect society. However, theoretically, utopia has nearly perfect qualities, not exactly perfect. In history, there has not been any specific record of a utopian society existing and there has been controversy on that it will never exist. However, a utopian society is possible because a utopia does not necessarily need to be absolutely perfect, society can come together and put aside its differences, and because the people learn how to improve situations that can happen or have happened.

These links are part of each others personalities, but without the trust and commitment within both personalities the relation is weak and will not hold its ground for long.

We tell intimate things to our doctors, priests or strangers we meet in trains and know we will never see again" (Gilbert, Paul. Human Relationships. B...
