The author discusses his utopia based on a universal army, similar in some ways to Bellamy\’s Industrial Army, as the best way to deal with the current economic situation. The utopia was originally given as a keynote address at the 2013 meeting of the Society of Utopian Studies in Charleston, SC, and the utopia in the address was much more detailed than in the published version.

Most of the novel is concerned with conflicts over the protection or development of Antarctica. But the novel ends with the agreement to establish a system that would be environmentally sound and put the future of Antarctica in the hands of those who care for it rather that companies concerned with making a profit. While there are few details and nothing on how it works out, the novel is regularly classified as a utopia.
