From the Sun City to Kuršumlija: De-exotization and Dystopian Local Patriotism in Serbian Science Fiction (Summary)
Noel Putnik
Sažetak
Based on several examples, the paper discusses the dystopian themes of Serbian science fiction in the past four decades. In this period SF writers attempted to approach the literary mainstream by increasingly abandoning their (Anglophone) pseudonyms and by shifting to the local social, political, historical and ethnographic context. In this process dystopian topics acquired a distinctly local character. The paper shows how the pragmatic efforts of a marginalized group of authors to gain a greater reputation and a better position on the market through literary emancipation, in conjunction with a more general process of re-traditionalization, produced a fruitful interaction between the global and the local in the domain of literary dystopia
