![]() ![]() ![]() Unfortunately, one day Purcell wakes to find that he may have japed the statue honoring Major Streiter by cutting off its head, and repositioning the body so it appears to be playing football with itself. Now, in the early 22nd century, Alan Purcell runs an agency that provides MoRec campaigns to the Telemedia, the government-run television network. MoRec stands for Moral Reclamation, an ultra-conservative and puritanical process of limiting cultural expansion and only providing new ideas through carefully groomed channels. "The Man Who Japed" is set in a world similar to " The World Jones Made." Philip K Dick has imagined a world after the apocalypse of the 1970's, where society was rebuilt based on a philosophy of MoRec, which made peace and prosperity compulsory, promoted by an early leader named Major Streiter. ![]()
