About this book
In a period marked by industrial upheaval and social inequality, Edward Bellamy's "Looking Backward, 2000 to 1887" explores a visionary future shaped by collective ownership and economic justice. The protagonist, Julian West, awakens in a utopian society where the principles of cooperation and equality have replaced the rampant capitalism of his time. This novel uniquely presents the concept of a planned economy and critiques the individualism that dominated the 19th century, making it essential reading for students and civic activists alike. Bellamy's work challenges readers to reconsider the foundations of their own society while imagining a world where unalienable rights are genuinely upheld. Discover how this transformative narrative invites critical reflection on our present and future.
