Dystopian Fiction Has Been Moved to Current Affairs is back! Masha and Clare have returned from our summer break, and we have a new episode out for you on the tv drama Fallout (Amazon Prime).
In this episode, we discuss depiction of post-nuclear apocalypse, and the formation of societies within this.
We talk about the Golden Rule vs immoral lawlessness, and whether trust and community can survive societal destruction.
We are especially interested in the show's depiction of war-profiteering, late capitalism, privatization of government projects, and the power of corporations.
Also dogs: dogs feature quite a lot.
Among other references, in this episode we recommend the new book by George Monbiot and Peter Hutchison, The Invisible Doctrine: The Secret History of Neoliberalism (& How It Came to Control Your Life).
