The Vinge is set after a (probable nuclear war) event has cut off communities into small enclaves, some of which are less technological than others. A man from one that still has powered flight is prospecting for sites where metal can be dug out of ruins and crashes in a community where such things are looked on as works of the devil. He is lucky to survive, helped by a woman who has been disowned by her father for refusing to marry the man her father picked out.
The Le Guin novel is set on a planet where two communities have grown up, descendants from people sent out from Earth to get rid of them - the first a city dwelling people whose ancestors were criminals, the second a country and farming dwelling group who are descending from people who were non violent protestors and believers in peace. The city dwellers exploit the country folk who have sent out an expedition to find out if there is somewhere they can set up another community away from the 'bosses' in the city. The novel centres around the character of the boss' daughter, and a young man of the peace/farming community, against a backdrop of the city folk using increasingly violent means to subjugate the farmers.
