Dystopias: From Fiction to Reality – The Rise of the Dystopian Age

Trumpism, Populism, and the Erosion of Democracy – An Analysis of Our Dystopian Reality

Are we already living in a dystopia?

Mass surveillance, fake news, societal division, and the erosion of democratic norms—once the foundation of speculative fiction, these themes have become an unsettling reality. Autocratic leaders, digital manipulation, and political violence are no longer confined to books and movies; they define our world today.

This book uncovers the striking parallels between dystopian narratives and today’s political landscape.
