Dystopian stories and visions of the Apocalypse are nothing new; however in recent years there has been a noticeable surge in the output of this type of theme in literature, art, comic books/graphic novels, video games, TV shows, etc. The reasons for this are not exactly clear; it may partly be as a result of post 9/11 anxieties, the increasing incidence of extreme weather and/or environmental anomalies, chaotic fluctuations in the economy and the uncertain and shifting political landscape in the west in general. Investigating this highly topical and pervasive theme from interdisciplinary perspectives this volume presents various angles on the main topic through critical analyses of selected works of fiction, film, TV shows, video games and more.

"Låt oss vårda och bejaka de underhållande aspekterna i våra kulturkrockar. Låt oss välkomna situationer där människor av olika arter och med olika livssyn genom kulturkrocken har förmåtts att ge sig själva och varandra i en försonande skrattspegel. Jag vill påstå att historierna i denna bok har en skrattspegelkvalitet som påminner om att varje kulturkrock bär ett givande möte i sitt sköte." Ana Martinez, ur förkrocken
