A Review on Dystopia and Critical Dystopia Examples in the Debates on Civil Liberties and the Future of Opposition
Abstract
Based on the relationship between opposition and democracy, the study aims to discuss the space of civil liberties and the future of opposition. The possibilities and limitations of social opposition in existing (and different) social formations are analysed in depth in the context of dystopian examples. Within the scope of the study, the dystopias titled We, 1984, Brave New World, and The Dispossessed are discussed in the context of their common features (fictionalising a more advanced historical period, opening capitalist relations of production to discussion, expansion of state power to all areas of life and criticism of the consumer society) and the narrowing of the space of both civil liberties and opposition in conditions where the boundaries and authority of the state are blurred, and the future of opposition and democracy in this context are discussed.
