«Utopía» is the philosophical essay by Tomás Moro, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (216 pages, in Spanish).
Tomás Moro describes an imaginary island where political, social and religious organisation responds to an ideal of justice and equity. Through this contrast, the author criticises the European monarchies of the 16th century and examines property, war, laws and religious tolerance.

He also served Henry VIII as Lord Chancellor from October 1529 to May 1532. He wrote Utopia, published in 1516, which describes the political system of an imaginary island state.
