Describing and explaining how the physical and social landscape of The Time Machine can be considered utopian, dystopian, or both.

Written during a period of rapid economic growth and capitalist industrialization in Victorian England, The Time Machine is a notable work of utopian/dystopian fiction and social criticism. Most notably, it imagines the ways in which the human species have evolved (or devolved) into two separate species, the Eloi, and the Morlocks, whose relationship of struggle and survival can be read as a metaphor and prophecy for future societies. Likewise, The Time Machine also provides sharp insights into the concept of gender roles in modern society through the depiction of these two species and their relationships.

Write a 500-750-word essay that includes the following: Is there a certain level of voting that is necessary to ensure our political system maintains its legitimacy (what your text calls “system stability”)?

Write a 500-750-word essay that includes the following: Is there a certain level of voting that is necessary to ensure our political system maintains its legitimacy (what your text calls “system stability”)? Explain. “We the People,” not the individual states, comprise the original constituent power of our federal union. What happens if those very “People” effectively cease exercising that sovereignty via the ballot? Your book notes that, in a representative republic such as ours, we all implicitly accept, and thereby legitimize, the results. Can popular sovereignty continue if the population stops voting to any significant degree? Explain. There is no legal duty to vote in the United States. Given what you have written above, can you make the argument that there is an ethical duty to vote?  Do free individual citizens owe each other at least that much in a representative republic? (comp. 2.4) Include two or more scholarly resources. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the GCU Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.
