URBAN COLLAPSE AND ECOLOGICAL DYSTOPIA IN 21ST-CENTURY CLIMATE FICTION

This study examines the representation of urban collapse and ecological dystopia in selected works of 21st-century climate fiction. Using an ecocritical approach, the research analyzes how contemporary authors portray environmental catastrophe, social instability, political failure, and human survival in dystopian urban settings. The study focuses on Parable of the Sower, The Water Knife, and New York 2140. Through qualitative textual analysis, the paper explores themes such as climate anxiety, ecological destruction, social inequality, adaptation, and survival. The findings reveal that climate fiction functions as both literary imagination and environmental warning by exposing the consequences of unsustainable development and ecological neglect.
