  • SOC 413: Societies of the Future

    3.00 Credits
    University of New England

    This course explores social conditions, social structures, institutions, values, and norms in societies of the future as depicted in science fiction cinema. This extrapolation over time allows us to explore the forces and processes of social change from new perspectives. Science fiction cinema provides a valuable medium for addressing these questions because it emphasizes actual, extrapolative, or speculative science and the empirical method interacting in a social context in an attempt to reconcile man with the unknown. Specific themes of social change such as war, disease, technology, overpopulation, and environmental disaster will be explored. Emphasis will be placed on changing gender and race norms, the roles of class, systems of government and economics, and ultimately the foundations of power in societies of the future.
