dc.description.abstract | The book revolves around a fictional South American tribe called Cesares, which is a utopian society having a harmonious environment, where the government is chosen by merit and the legal system is exceptionally fair. An Account of the First Settlement, Laws, Form of Government, and Police, of the Cessares, a People of South America is a critique of 18th-century world monarchy, presenting a lack of political freedom and injustice governing systems. The book, as an example of utopian literature, reflects enlightenment and highlights the belief in human society's improvement through reason and rationality. | |
