Sir Thomas More was an English humanist, lawyer and social philosopher that served as a member of Parliament. Some of the topics that More explored the most were related to social and economic reforms. His ideas on how society and economy should work were expressed in his most influential work: <em>Utopia</em> (1516), a fiction story in which the author described a communist society and an ideal political system in which policies are governed by reason, in which religious tolerance, peace, education, and good relationship prevail, and in which the law is simple and there are no lawyers.
