Topics in American Politics; Strange New Worlds: A Sci-Fi Exploration of American Politics

Reviews for this course Testudo

As polarization and inequality rise and democratic institutions face increasing strain, science fiction offers a lens for examining core issues in American politics through imagined political worlds. Through novels such as Fahrenheit 451, Dune, and Parable of the Sower, students analyze participation, power, inequality, and democratic limits and apply those insights to contemporary American politics.
