Existing Societies–their Realistic Utopian Potential

Under construction

A look at the varying conditions of existing societies, and their potential to achieve Realistic Utopian goals, e.g., large nations vs. small nations, democratic vs. non-democratic politics, multi-cultural versus homogeneous populations.

A comparative analysis of certain countries that may be considered relatively high in potential for achieving wider scale Realistic Utopia, but are nevertheless extremely different, such as Switzerland and Bhutan.

Differences in Realistic Utopian potential within the same body politic, such as Tokyo vs. Kyoto in Japan, and whether potential differences among local communities within each of those municipalities are more significant than general differences between major regions. The lessons of the Amish in the United States, a true case of a long lasting, highly unique society within a society.
