Annotation

Detailed authoritarian eutopia is presented in a small, 810-acre city in a square bordered on three sides with farmlands and a stream on the fourth. Land bought and sold by the city rather than individuals. Citizens vote on many issues with a two-thirds majority required for most decisions. Both men and women vote, although a certificate of education is required to be able to vote and to marry.
