In his masterpiece, More considers what is the best form of government. He describes an imaginary island, the imaginary commonwealth Utopia (meaning “no place”), where people live according to the rule of reason—free from poverty, crime, and injustice. It is an attempt to depict an ideal society, where neighbor lives in harmony with neighbor and nations are of one accord—not under compulsion of manmade law, but under the wand of grace, the holy will of the Most High.
