Dystopian fiction stories often depict a society in which people suffer under oppressive rule, lack of freedoms, poverty, pollution, violence, terrorism or intimidation. Common themes include the dangers of totalitarianism, censorship, industrialization, surveillance, ecological disaster, nuclear war, overpopulation, or catastrophic climate change. These stories frequently serve as cautionary tales, as warnings about the potential consequences of social, political and technological trends, scientific advances, breakdowns of social institutions or environmental problems.
