A Modern Utopia Chapter 5 - A Failure in a Modern Utopia, Sections 1-3
In which the sober realities of human imperfection and natural selection are confronted with a vision of a Modern Utopia that seeks neither to abolish competition nor to tolerate suffering and failure, but to alleviate the harshness of fate through benevolent social organisation and prudent state intervention. It is a vision wherein the frail and unfit are humanely tended or segregated, the indigent are met with dignified opportunity rather than charity, and freedom is balanced by responsibility in the enduring drama of life’s struggle.
