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.
In a compelling analysis, Markus Bruechler connects some of the most influential dystopian works with real-world political developments:
?? The Purge – The normalization of violence as a political tool.
?? The Hunger Games – Media control, class oppression, and authoritarian rule.
?? The Handmaid’s Tale – Theocratic control and the attack on women’s rights.
?? 1984 & Brave New World – Mass surveillance, truth distortion, and social conditioning.
?? Joker – Social decay, public rage, and the radicalization of the masses.
?? Star Wars (Prequels) – How democracies crumble into autocracies.
?? The Electric State (2024) – A glimpse into a failed society’s future.
