The EasyJet version of a city as seen by a couple wanting to rent an inexpensive EasyFlat in EasyCity, a new suburb being built near the airport that EasyJet has renamed to suggest it is closer to a major city than it actually is and going through all the add-on extras. All the stories in the book are responses to a recent book, A New City O/S: The Power of Open, Collaborative, and Distributed Government (Washington, DC: Brookings Institution Press, 2017), by Stephen Goldsmith and Neil Kleiman, that proposes, in the editors\’ interpretation, that cities should act more like Amazon in dealing with their citizens.

An essay that presents a better future that has overcome the most important problems of the early twenty-first century, which are identified as the environment, including climate-change, migration from the South to the North, and international inequalities, which are said to be interrelated. The eutopia has a world, but decentralized, governmental structure, with the world government elected through the internet with everyone voting on the same list of candidates. There is a CO2 tax that encouraged local production and stimulated investment in clean technologies. There are no limits on migration and an international open market, international social insurance, and income redistribution. There are multi-generational living arrangements and joint leisure activities and cultural and religious diversity. The essay ends with a brief section on how to achieve these goals.\

An essay presenting a eutopia set in 2050 in which the production gains brought about by automation have led to a universal basic income which allows the recipient to live however they choose. A man and his family are used to illustrate the positive effects in living, health care, education, which is focused on individual talents and activities that help the community as a whole. Also, financial security has led to greater inventiveness and innovation. Teachers and caregivers are well-paid and human interaction is still valued so some jobs that could have been fully automated have not been.
