Science Fiction Cinema in the Twenty-First Century: Transnational Futures, Cosmopolitan Concerns (Studies in Global Genre Fiction)
by Pablo Gómez-MuñozRecent films are increasingly using themes and conventions of science fiction such as dystopian societies, catastrophic environmental disasters, apocalyptic scenarios, aliens, monsters, time travel, teleportation, and supernatural abilities to address cosmopolitan concerns such as human rights, climate change, economic precarity, and mobility.
