It is the ultimate desire of all people to live in a wonderful society. What, from your point of view, are the main characteristics of such a society? Can individuals do anything to make it happen?

Throughout human history, it has been

one

of the main concerns of humanity to make a utopian

society

materialize, an attempt which has never achieved complete success. To serve

this

purpose, the criteria based on which a perfect

society

is defined should be clarified,

as well as

the role that every individual can play in

this

process. Every human

community

needs laws, to regulate the interaction between individuals and minimize the possibility of any conflict. The creation of laws naturally necessitates the establishment of an institution to implement laws, and punish any violation, what is most commonly referred to as the government. The first characteristic feature of an ideal

society

, in fact, lies here. Historical experience suggests that political power has always been associated with totalitarianism and corruption, so a perfect

society

is first characterized by a perfect government. Following a long period of trial and error, mankind has come to

because it minimizes the probability of dictatorship.

This

is why an ideal

should have a responsible government selected by and accountable to every single citizen.

one

in which every single citizen reserves and exercises the right to grow and prosper, regardless of the social or economic

class

that they belong to, religion, political view or any other factor that might be the cause of discrimination. A

society

in which a privileged minority enjoys all facilities and possibilities in education and career can never be an ideal

. In fact,

class

differences are permitted as long as they are caused by the efforts of individuals to attain success, not

as a result

of external factors which are beyond

's control. So, a good human

community

can

be characterized by the even distribution of wealth among all citizens. Many sociologists hold the view that the process of enhancing a

individuals. It is people who constitute a

community

so it would be naive to assume that a perfect

society

comes into existence without the participation of every single person. The most critical step towards

this

goal is to raise public awareness. The so-called utopia requires

people who are aware of their rights and responsibilities, the conditions of their

community

and the world, and the course of action they should take to lead a better life. Every new book read by a citizen,

this

society

.

Besides

, every member of a

community

should feel responsible for the ongoing affairs, and the way they can effectively participate in improving the situation. Helping a labour child to go to school,

for example

, can minimize the risk of that child turning to crime in adulthood, which makes us closer to the concept of an ideal

society

. In brief, I believe that living in a desirable

society

is similar to climbing

Everest. It is a very ambitious goal indeed but it entails taking small, seemingly trivial, steps. We may never experience a city or country in which everything is perfectly acceptable, but we can get closer to

this

ideal provided that we perform our own role effectively.
