Equality

by OpenStories

Original author: Edward Bellamy

CompletedPublished Updated

"Equality" by Edward Bellamy is a utopian novel published in 1897 as a sequel to "Looking Backward: 2000–1887." Julian West continues exploring the year 2000, discovering a radically transformed society where credit cards replace money, women work freely, and vegetarianism is universal. Through extended lectures and tours of this idealized future, Bellamy expands his socialist vision, explaining how humanity evolved from 19th-century capitalism to an egalitarian world of shared prosperity, technological marvels, and universal language.

Equality, by Edward Bellamy. Republished by OpenStories from Project Gutenberg eBook #7303.
