Abstract
This chapter provides a substantive overview of many of the main issues and lines of argument in the book. In doing so, the chapter considers the “Utopia as Dystopia” notion in terms of what would be truly and fully just, given that a fully just society could be a fine place to live. This form of utopian thinking is also analyzed under the principles of full social justice. It defends the simple claim that it is no defect in a theory or conception of social justice if it sets such a high standard that there is little or no chance of its being met, by any society, ever. Such a theory could nevertheless be true. Following this is a discussion about unrealistically high standards or principles of full social justice.
