Abstract:
The first known Ecological Utopia novel was written by Ernest Callenbach in 1975 in America. Ecological Dystopia, on the other hand, has already taken its place in many dystopian works, even if it had not been named yet, as dystopia takes the future as its subject. In dystopian fiction, since the problems that are and can be experienced in a country or in the world are discussed, the dystopian writer expresses the negativities that may be experienced in the future based on his/her own geography. Ecological dystopia writers make predictions about how environmental pollution, forest fires, natur

Abstract:
This essay considers a peculiar kind of science-fictional writing with environmental concerns that pivots on the imagery of catastrophe and blends the dystopian and the post-apocalyptic traditions. This sub-genre is known as eco-dystopia, which, I argue, merges the catastrophic imagery of the post-apocalyptic tradition with the consequential mode of dystopia. Eco-dystopias rely on the imagery of catastrophe to warn the public about the dangers and the consequences of the Anthropocene. However, such imagery presents strong limitations when used to dramatize and conceptualize the Anthropocene, a

Abstract:
This article examines the interplay of dystopian and utopian themes in Terry Bisson’s Pirates of the Universe, utilizing Tom Moylan’s concept of “critical dystopia.” In the novel, Bisson maps out a number of discontinuous dystopias in a near-future US marked by rampant capitalist enterprise, out-of-control bio-technology, ecological decay, and a weak central state. These dystopias generally produce citizens with fragmented personal experiences, disinterest in social issues, and limited aspirations. Towards the end of the novel, when free and clean energy becomes available to all, Bisson explor

This article examines contemporary Hebrew dystopic novels in which ecological issues play a critical role, reflecting an increasing preoccupation of Israeli culture and society with the environment. The literary turn to dystopia is not new, but whereas Israeli dystopias published in the 1980s–1990s focused mainly on military apocalyptic visions, current novels combine these national anxieties with ecological dangers, following present-day trends in American literature and cinema. These contemporary dystopias either conjoin a national crises with an ecological disaster as the source of the cata

Abstract Crossing the binary of utopia and dystopia, this article reads Hao Jingfang's (1984–) novel Vagabonds as a critical ecotopia. I explore configurations of social worlds and eschew the politics of purity by highlighting the complexities of building a utopia while navigating entangled complicity and ambiguity between utopia and dystopia. The Mars Republic in the novel represents an ecotopia built through advanced technologies, where Martians adapt to the arid environment in contrast with the environmentally degraded earth. The novel portrays encounters, shocks, and mutual critiques betwe

Abstract:
The blurring of the boundaries between utopia and dystopia and the weaving of utopian hopes and possibilities into narratives seen as belonging to the genre of the dystopian novel has been a characteristic of the latter for a long time. Overviews of developments in dystopian literature in the twentieth and the twenty-first century have noted instances of this phenomenon ranging from works in which pockets of resistance to dystopian worlds carry with them hopes for a utopian future to ones in which utopian hope is read in the faces of a handful of survivors who have heroically emerged from amon

Abstract In recent years, anxiety around anthropogenic climate change and its consequences has taken centre-stage in the narratives of contemporary novels. The abundance of ecodystopian novels placed in futuristic climate-changed settings with visions of apocalypse or dystopian futures, reflect the contemporary anguish around climate crisis. It is also the case of India, where many contemporary writers have adopted the literary mode of dystopia to envision the future societies grappling with the consequences of climate change and ecological disaster.

Abstract The zombie genre has a number of characteristics that allow for a more thorough consideration of the link between the fictive zombie outbreaks and the problems of the Anthropocene. The present study aims to scrutinize why this issue can be considered even when it is not directly addressed, as in The Walking Dead series (2010–2022), which is analyzed after an overview of how the zombie has transitioned from embodying individual and social condition to indicating ecological threats.

Abstract Brendan Pelsue’s Wellesley Girl, which premiered in the midst of the 2016 U. S. Presidential election, depicts American democracy – as an institution, a mythology, and a practice – as a fundamentally flawed utopian framework that is susceptible to dystopian failure. In this post-apocalyptic community in which every adult is a member of Congress, it becomes clear that American democracy was systematically designed to exclude emotional reasoning – with a few notable, destructive, exceptions – and it therefore enforces performances of reason that tend to exclude women and produce a cogni

Abstract:
Aldous Huxley: The Political Thought of a Man of Letters argues that Huxley is not a man of letters engaged in politics, but a political thinker who chooses literature to spread his ideas. His preference for the dystopian genre is due to his belief in the tremendous impact of dystopia on twentieth-century political thought. His political thinking is not systematic, but this does not stop his analysis from supplying elements that are original and up-to-date, and that represent fascinating contributions of political theory in all the spheres that he examines from anti-Marxism to anti-positivism,
