In the author\’s introduction to The LaNague Chronicles. Ed. and sequenced by the author. New York: Baen Books, 1992, he says that his ideas were inspired by Ludwig Von Mises (1881-1973), the Austrian economist who lived and worked in the U. S. from 1940 and Murray Rothbard (1926-1995), a U. S. member of the Austrian School of economics and one of the founders of the von Mises Institute, or, as Wilson puts it, \“a rational anarchist, an advocate of laissez fire, a radical capitalist\” (viii). In the introduction, he characterizes the LaNague Federation as encouraging \“any type of society, no matter how bizarre or crazy the philosophy at its core. . . . With a single proviso: free egress must exist at all times. Anyone who wants to opt out of that society must be allowed to do so\” (viii-ix).

A decision is made that all children will be born within a five-year period every twenty-five years, which works very well.

Among other things, the story describes a eutopia that began to emerge in the 1950s called the Age of Social Enlightenment. Based initially on \“The Law of the Triangle\”--\“Healthy and congenial occupation with an adequate income for all. Equal opportunities to all and to each the full reward of his accomplishment.

There is a significant focus on love and sex both in initial descriptions of the bad old world and in contrasts between it and the new world that develops after the passing of the comet.

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.\
