Tomás Moro crea una comunidad ficticia con ideales filosóficos y polÃticos diferentes a los de las comunidades contemporáneas de su época. Esta creación intelectual es presentada mediante la narración y descripción que realiza de dicha comunidad un explorador, llamado Rafael Hythloday. UtopÃa es una comunidad pacÃfica, que establece la propiedad común de los bienes, en contraste con el sistema de propiedad privada y la relación conflictiva entre las sociedades europeas. A diferencia de las sociedades medievales en Europa, las autoridades en UtopÃa son determinadas mediante el voto popular, aunque con importantes diferencias con respecto a las democracias del siglo XX. La obra contiene numerosas referencias a los pensamientos del filósofo griego Sócrates, expuestos en la obra La República, de Platón, donde se describe asimismo una sociedad idealizada. Moro demuestra, principalmente en los nombres de funcionarios y ciudades de la isla, que se trata de una comunidad imaginaria. Por ejemplo, cuando llama a su capital Amaurota (posiblemente del griego 'sin muros', o bien, del griego 'oscuro'), regada por el rÃo Anhidro ('sin agua') y regida por un funcionario cuyo tÃtulo es Ademus ('sin pueblo'). Siguiendo esta progresión, es probable que UtopÃa provenga del griego outopia ('no lugar', como, de hecho, lo tradujo al castellano Francisco de Quevedo), aunque también puede provenir del griego eutopia ('lugar bueno').
