The Open Conspiracy

The Open Conspiracy was published in 1928 by H. G. Wells, when he was 62 years old.The book is in his own words a "scheme to thrust forward and establish a human control over the destinies of life and liberate it from its present dangers, uncertainties and miseries." It propounds that as the result of scientific progress, a common vision of a world "politically, socially and economically unified" is developing among educated and the elites, and this notion can be the starting point for "a world revolution aiming at universal peace, welfare and happy activity" resulting in the development of a "world commonweal."
