Het is hoog tijd dat we op zoek gaan naar alternatieven voor de desastreuze 'utopie van de vrije markt'. Daarbij kan Utopia van Thomas More ons goede diensten bewijzen, maar we moeten dat 'oerboek' uit 1516 dan wel met nieuwe ogen bekijken. Door de eeuwen heen is de tekst opgevat als een serieuze blauwdruk van een ideale samenleving, maar dat gaat geheel tegen More's bedoeling in. More schreef Utopia nu juist - in het verlengde van Erasmus' Lof der zotheid - als een boek vol spot, maatschappijkritiek, ironie en zotternij. Intussen bevat Utopia wel degelijk allerlei bruikbare suggesties voor verbetering van wantoestanden in de rechtspraak, van scheefgegroeide machtsstructuren en onrechtvaardige economische verhoudingen. Als het ons lukt om juist die suggesties ernstig op te vatten, dan kunnen we daar nu nog ons voordeel mee doen. Zo kan Utopia, een boek van 500 jaar oud, ons helpen om in het hier en nu nieuwe inspirerende idealen te formuleren.

Colin Starnes radical interpretation of the long-recognized affinity of Thomas More's Utopia and Plato's Republic confirms the intrinsic links between the two works. Through commentary on More's own introduction to Book I, the author shows the Republic is everywhere present as the model of the ""best commonwealth,"" which More must first discredit as the root cause of the dreadful evils in the collapsing political situation of sixteenth-century Europe.
