De optimo reipublicae statu, deque nova insula Vtopiae" (en español, "Libro Del estado ideal de una república en la nueva isla de Utopía") es un libro escrito por Tomas Moro y publicado en 1516.El libro consta de dos partes. La primera es un dialogo que gira principalmente en torno a cuestiones filosoficas, politicas y economicas en la Inglaterra contemporanea al autor y la segunda parte es la narracion que uno de los personajes del dialogo realiza de la isla de Utopia.El nombre de la isla fue inventado por Moro y los estudiosos de su obra le atribuyen dos origenes, ambos del griego. Uno es "ou", que significa "no" y el otro "eu", que significa "bueno". En ambos casos, el prefijo se complementa con la palabra "topos", que se traduce como "lugar".Aunque con el paso del tiempo el termino utopia se haya popularizado como sinonimo de perfeccion, u objetivo inalcanzable, Tomas Moro no le atribuye explicitamente ese significado en su obra.
