    The human being has always been fascinated with what exists in the future for us; where we go after we die, how the world might end and what our role is in the grander scheme of things. These are some of the existential questions we ask ourselves. Geoff Ryman creates a utopic future for us to see how some answers to these questions could play out. In Ryman’s story Everywhere, Ryman shows that to achieve a utopic society one of the essential components is an advancement in communication; he shows this through examples such as the ability to communicate with animals, the advancements of communication with technology and the ability to speak with the deceased. These advancements bring life to an idea of technology bringing us into union with the…

    In the modern world, there are many different countries with different systems of government. In Aldous Huxley’s utopian world, there is only one country, the “World State,” and one government, led by Mustapha Mond and the world controllers. This government system works and runs as a well-oiled machine with very little disruptions, which contributes to its success as a government. For the people of this “World State,” their government and habitations are a utopia, as is evident through the complacency of the citizens. Therefore, Mustapha Mond and the world controllers are successful in their creation of a “World State” and paradise, through the mindset of the citizens and the operation of the government.…

    We have the freedom to express ourselves. This creates a problem with having a utopia today because it goes against the idea of expression of individuality. Today, we encourage people to express themselves in any way they want. The utopia will not be happening anytime soon if it does not involve expressing…

    No one wants to be controlled their whole life, they want freedom and Utopian societies do not give you that. Although others may say that the government can control the people, if the people are willing to actually listen to the government. An example of not having freedom in a utopian society is that in Fahrenheit…

    Can a utopia, as necessitated by its definition, actually be perfect if in insuring the future of the human race, its people are required to lose their autonomy? Both the novel The Handmaid’s Tale written by Margaret Atwood, and film The Island directed by Michael Bay, explore this question. In The Handmaid’s Tale, Atwood uses a subgroup called Handmaids from a fictional society called The Republic of Gilead, as a means to examine the effects of objectification, forced servitude, and restricted access to education, in a totalitarian society. Alternatively, in The Island, the film depicts a subgroup of clones in a futuristic community controlled by a corporation called Merrick Biotech, to explore these common issues. Both stories come to the…

    Is social stability worth the price of giving up your individualism in exchange for a life filled with nothing, but joy? Is this not what everyone thrives for? In the book Brave New World the society that everyone is accustomed makes sure everyone is happy, has a role and title, and there is no crime nor religion. For a society to become a utopia in my opinion, must have these essentials: a society that everyone can be themselves without any worry, crime is a thing of the past, everyone contributes to society and are equal, and everyone lives a long and fulfilling life. Social stability comes with a price along with everything else, and I say that even though it has its advantages, people, along with myself are not ready to give up their rights and lose their individualism to achieve this so called utopia.…

    A utopian society is one where the members believe their way of life is near perfect. Of course, this is a mere opinion that they share amongst each other. In the United States, a movement often referred to as the Second Great Awakening inspired several attempts at the perfect society, many of which ceased to exist shortly after being created. Near the Wabash river in the state of Indiana, Johann Georg Rapp, a German immigrant, established the town of Harmony, in 1814. A bit over 10 years later, a man with a plan sailed over from the old continent to establish a site where he could implement his vision of a “New Moral World.”…

    Individuality is the greatest threat to a utopian society, if one person doesn’t like the way the leader is running the show, then why should you continue to follow their lead? This is the problem I tackled in my final project, as I produced a seminar that was telling students from a fictional institution how to run their utopian societies in a way where they could eliminate or control individuality. Of course their are many different ways to see a utopian society, sometimes it is optimistic, Where To Invade Next (2015) while others are much darker, 1984 (1984). I quickly decided to ignore the optimistic utopian societies, since many times the citizens are the rulers. Instead I focused on the utopian societies that were completely controlling…

    A utopian society is one in which is modeled on or aims for a state in which everything is perfect or ideal. In a Brave New World, the author Aldous Huxley looks to satirize the ideals of a perfect society and provide a frightening view of what the future may hold. As a result of new technological advances in reproduction and conditioning give way, the impact on society overall is preposterous. The whole reproduction process had been modified so that viviparity is no longer necessary, as children are mass produced in factories. From there, conditioning processes determine the caste and lifestyle each individual will represent for the rest of their life.…

    According to Webster Dictionary a Utopian Society, means an impossibly ideal society or way of life. To achieve this society people have to be happy no matter what happens, but they cannot be happy if they fear the alternative to their society. In Fahrenheit 451 by: Ray Bradbury, Harrison Bergeron by: Kurt Vonnegut and The Lottery by: Shirley Jackson, the society worked so hard to eliminate fear, Instead of achieving this they created a society where people were silenced, controlled, lost their individuality and had no opinions or thoughts of their own. People lost a sense of worth; making them cower into themselves and miss something, they could never quite place. The more they tried to create an ideal society the more they created a fearful…

In the Novel The Giver versus our society their a lot of differences that split our society from theres. The society in The Giver and ours there are a lot of rules. In our society there are rules such as If someone killed someone than you have to be punished. The Giver society is similar to are society in this case because, when people are released they inject them with a serum and it kills the person or child.
