“Why and how does a given work depict a particular system of government? What is this system’s relationship to new technologies?” This sounds like a pretty dope issue of the Science Fiction Research Association Review. sfrareview.org/2024/08/01/cal…

Our Summer Issue of SFRA Review 54.3 also launches an exciting new CFP for an upcoming issue "Alternative Governance in Science Fiction" Click the link below for more details sfrareview.org/2024/08/01/cal…

We also love being open-access

Check out the new issue of SFRA Review, in which I rave about 'Scavengers Reign' (among many other stellar articles!)

New article just dropped! In it, I use Eman Abdelhadi and M.E. O'Brien's Everything for Everyone to explore the idea of a "low bar" for contemporary utopias. This view both recalibrates what can be considered a utopia and insists upon the possibility of achieving it.

Is socialist utopia within our reach? Can it take place at any time in history? How might we imagine and instantiate alternatives to the capitalist present? Engagements with these Qs (and more) by gabriel burrow, Meltem Dağcı, Ruiyang Zhang, Chiara Viceconti, & Pavla Veselá here:

One month left for our call for papers on Alternative Governance in Science Fiction. Utopia, empire, anarchy... Please send your 250 word proposals by September 15th 👽 sfrareview.org/2024/08/01/cal…

I'm really excited about this CFP and the ideas to come from it! Please share it with anyone interested or even apply yourself!

this sounds exciting

A fascinating subject I'd love to read about. #scifi
