The Open Conspiracy

By H. G. Wells
The Open Conspiracy by H. G. Wells digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

The novelist behind The War of the Worlds and The Invisible Man gets political in his manifesto for creating a more ordered, peaceful planet.

The Open Conspiracy is H. G. Wells’s attempt to outline how civilization should be ordered through a world commonwealth. He wished for humanity to gain control over its destiny and free itself from the dangers, uncertainties, and miseries it faced. This commonwealth’s mission was to support the advancement of all humanity. It would do so through advancing science, ending nationalism, and allowing people to progress by their own merit rather than whatever class they are born into. He believed that through his plan, poverty and warfare would be no more, and we could achieve “universal peace, welfare and happy activity.”

Originally published in 1928, The Open Conspiracy was revised three times, with its final version appearing in 1933.
