Culture novels - a blue print for a future society?

Iain M. Banks - a Scottish author - has written a series of novels based in and around a "socialist" system of the future. Do SLLU members feel this is a society we are headed for? do members feel it is a leap too far? Do members feel it is a system too anarchic to allow?
