Totalitarianism, thought control, etc. Take your pick. Books like Nineteen Eighty-Four and Brave New World, are often referenced in dystopian societies such as Psycho-Pass'. But if we're looking for more immediate inspiration, I think someone in one of the episode threads made an interesting case for Masamune Shirow's Appleseed.
