Throughout the semester, you’ve explored various texts discussing ideas of progress and utopia. In Essay Part 1, you detailed your own utopian vision. Now, for Essay Part 2, you’ll compare your utopia with one of the accounts from our readings. Choose from: (a) Anarres by Le Guin, (b) Bastiat’s capitalist view, (c) Marx and Engels’ communism, or (d) Goldman and Berkman’s anarchist communism. Add 500 words to your first essay where you will:
Explain briefly the chosen author’s vision.
Identify a feature you disagree with and explain why.
Provide reasons why your vision is better. Also, include one paragraph on Plato’s political philosophy. Your grade will focus on how well you explain the other author’s ideas, articulate your disagreement, and support your arguments.
Below is the link to the first essay, and the readings for the pdf you can summarize or read the summary so you dont have to read it all to do the essay.
