The story takes place in Sydney, Australia, which, due to climate change and environmental degradation had lost its tax base and agreed to cooperate with Sidewalk Labs, owned by Google, to create an experimental surveilled city that would focus on reducing the cities carbon footprint. This requires that every action by every resident be tracked an evaluated positively or negatively. Those who fall below the threshold determined by the city can be expelled, losing not merely the right to live in the city but their property in the city. 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.

Young adult dystopia plus exegesis. From the author\’s abstract. \“The genre in which the protagonist\&$\#$39;s journey is charted and represented is dystopian young adult fiction; hence my creative piece, The Water Catchment, is a novel manuscript for a dystopian young adult fantasy. It is a speculative novel set in a possible future and poses (and answers) the question: What might happen if water becomes the most powerful commodity on earth? There are two communities, called \‘worlds\’ to create a barrier and difference where physical ones are not in evidence. A battle ensues over unfair conditions and access to water. In the end the protagonist, Caitlyn, takes over leadership heralding a new era of co-operation and water management between the two worlds.\”

Everything on Venus standardized and visitors from the old Earth find it too perfect. Much of the novel is taken up with the conflicts this produces.

Flawed utopia. A past society had a highly developed, but authoritarian civilization with exceptional art and science . Explicitly racist and with a focus on eugenics, although the author of the Postscript in the Capricorn edition argues that the book is a warning against such thinking rather than supporting it. The argument is, essentially, that Cox is presenting the Eugenic Utopia as it would develop, which later became the goal of Nazi Germany, but that Cox intended it to be read as a dystopia. No direct evidence is presented, but it is a plausible interpretation. Survivors who had been put in suspended animation are discovered, which is initially perceived positively, but they are found to have no concern at all for humans, who they consider to be the lower beings.

Socialism and a lack of both religion and authority cause the collapse of Britain. Britain failed to educate its people so that democracy could function correctly. Climatic changes brought about by the movement of the Gulf Stream away from Britain and the resulting colder weather led to mass immigration and the collapse of commerce. The class structure in Britain divides people. The protagonist visits Britain in 2990 and the Britain of the nineteenth century in a dream. Australia in 2989 is prosperous and healthy with religion and authority as seen in a tour of Australia taken in what is called an electric car but runs on a schedule and has a guard. The poor in Australia are given assistance as a right.\

Non-fiction argument for Australian independence, but in the process the author discusses an at least partially eutopian future for the South Pacific. Specifically, he discusses opportunities for advancement for young men who would not be able to advance in Britain or in a colony and the room provided for more British poor to become self-sufficient. Freedom and independence will also lead to a more educated, moral, and Christian citizenry. In addition, he argues that Australia will provide raw materials for British industry and an increased outlet for its goods, and that both will be enhanced by freedom and independence. According to him, New Zealand would be bound to join the federation.

Victoria is presented as a future eutopia in which Christianity has produced a prosperous, well-educated, good population. Discusses commerce; the beauty of the city and its architecture, education, particularly religious education; agriculture; manufacturing; culture; and government, among other topics. The greatest obstacles, a poorly raised and educated younger generation and lack of religion, can be overcome by teaching children obedience and respect for their parents and God.
