Priestley was a strong idealist as he turned down an honour in 1965 and an invitation to be made a Companion of Honour in 1969. In overall context Priestley uses the Inspector as “moral tool” to express his views on socialism and how our wrongdoings effect everybody around us, and that if we don't learn that lesson, we will have to…
