In the book Utopia the country of Utopia is a true commonwealth where there is no private property or financial classes. Utopia is a fictional country with a society where everything is shared equally and there is no need. In Utopia, "Among [utopians] virtue has its reward, yet all is shared equally, and all men live in abundance" (More 1.38). By creating a place without money or private property, More undermines the institutions of Tudor England by addressing the social injustices that have to do with private property (Brayton). Stevenson says: “With radical simplicity the utopians avoid the evils of Europe: all private property is abolished. The biting descriptions of crime, poverty, unemployment, ostentatious luxury and idleness in Book I give way in Book II to Hythloday's praise of a country that is literally a "commonwealth", where there are no beggars, no gentlemen, no money . (Stevenson). The main tension in the book Utopia comes from disagreement over everything to do with private property (Phillips). In Utopia there are many well-thought-out solutions to problems such as taxation, food shortages, marital stability, religious tolerance, and greed. (Bender).Primary education is guaranteed to all. Furthermore, every citizen must work the land for at least two years to prevent food shortages (Next). Utopians only need money for emergencies like war because they can take whatever they need from stores at will. They even use gold to make their chamber pots (Next). Houston says, “Utopia is organized entirely along rational lines: there is sinlessness; children are raised communally; a system of slavery operates; and one city is exactly the same as another, so that utopia is everywhere... in the middle of paper... on the web.
