There have been a thousand tales of future Utopias and possible civilizations. They have been ruled by benevolent dictatorships and pure democracies, every form of government from extreme right to absolute left. Unique among these is the easy-going semi-anarchistic society ruled by THE SYNDIC.

He also participated in the Fantasy Amateur Press Association. Kornbluth is best known for his dystopian short story, THE MARCHING MORONS and several collaborations with other science fiction writers, notably Frederick Pohl.
