Is utopia possible

Answer 1

To live in utopia - just a dream...No, Utopia is an idea that is always something to strive for, but is unrealistic. It looks great in books, but in real life it is something that must be worked toward.

That's someone's answer-- here's mine--

I have lived in a sort of Utopia in the mountains of Vermont. It is hard. We went through a Great Schism. But it is still here. It is in the mind and heart of humanity, and as Gandhi said, "We must begin with the children" if we want a perfect, unbiased and wholly inclusive society.

Answer 2

No. Well, perhaps, but a functional utopia has a population of one.

No two people will ever agree on all aspects of a society.

Sir Thomas More coined the term Utopia with the publication of his novel of the same name in 1516. With this first Utopian novel More showed the inseparable nature, the Yin and Yang, of utopian and dystopian elements. This is seen in every Utopian story. Lois Lowery's The Giver and Gathering Blue, Margaret Attwood's The Handmaid's Tale and Oryx and Crake, the Michael Anderson film Logan's Run, Arthur C. Clark's Childhood's End, H.G. Wells' Men Like Gods, Ursula K. Le Guin's The Lathe of Heaven and The Dispossessed and dozens of other literary examples all examine the dipole nature of utopian/distopian philosophy.

In addition to literary works, a number of philosophers, religious leaders, and social reformers have conducted real world experiments in Utopian societies: the Amana Colonies, Shakers, Mormons, New Harmony, Fruitlands, Onieda, and Rappites have all tried and failed to build Utopian communities right here in the United States.

Answer 3
