The Open Conspiracy: Blue Prints for a World Revolution - Paperback

by Herbert George Wells (Author), H. G. Wells (Author)

The Open Conspiracy presents H. G. Wells' vision for an international movement to establish control over the destinies of human life. Through a process of propaganda and a "conspiracy" unfolding in full view, Wells hopes to create a world which is politically, socially and economically unified, ultimately leading to a revolution aimed at peace, welfare and happiness - a "world commonwealth".

First published in 1928 when radical movements like communism and fascism were shaking the established order, Wells pushes for a utopian world in which science is a religion, nation states do not exist any more, and population size and the distribution of food are coordinated by a global elite of businessmen and experts.

The Open Conspiracy prophetically foreshadows current developments towards global, technocratic governance and data-driven decision making.
