In this edited volume, an authoritative collective work produced by the intellectual efforts of more than forty scholars gathered at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Milan in September 2022 for the international conference Dystopian Worlds Beyond Storytelling, the reader will find a comprehensive analysis of dystopian worlds and scenarios. Following a multidisciplinary approach, topics as political orders and techno-dystopias, de-humanized worlds and contaminations, literature and performing arts, transmedia narratives, catastrophic and apocalyptic imaginaries are analyzed in depth.
