- Антиутопия (също Дистопия) е общество, което е нежелано по ред причини. Думата е създадена като антоним на утопия и обикновено се използва за описване на въображаемо общество, където сегашните обществени тенденции се превръщат в кошмарни крайности. Оттам произлиза терминът "роман-антиутопия". Weikipedia - by Yavor Dimitrov
