abstract:
This article reads Bellamy’s Looking Backward against his other work in Equality and The Nationalist and The New Nation. My analysis will correct some of the widely identified flaws in Looking Backward, and reading what Bellamy and others commenting on Looking Backward wrote after Looking Backward tells us a lot about why Bellamy wrote Equality as he did.
