Аннотации:
Dystopian stories are often the product of both creativity and analytics. As a result, they offer thought provoking reflections on how the world might turn into a place of desolation and misfortune if we do not recognize and intervene on the deep-rooted problems affecting our society. The main objective of this book is to raise up the public attention on a series of contemporary global challenges - such as climate change, lack of vital resources, overpopulation, global pandemics, social inequality, authoritarianism, weapons of mass destruction, artificial intelligence and genetic engineering - by provocatively claiming that the world might soon turn into a dystopia.
