Kirsten  (kmcripn) Audible.com's editors have created 12 college courses and required reading for the courses. Course #12 is Science Fiction and World Politics.

Audible.com: How can imagining the future help us understand the present? How does considering the future help us think critically about politics today? Looking to classic works of sci-fi and speculative fiction can enhance how we think about the political, social, and economic forces that will determine our future.

The Books:

The Dispossessed by Ursula K. Le Guin
Sundiver by David Brin
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson
Foundation by Isaac Asimov
1984 by George Orwell
The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick
The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood
Jennifer Government by Max Barry
The Man Who Sold the Moon by Robert A. Heinlein
The Futurological Congress: From the Memoirs of Ijon Tichy by Stanisław Lem
Make Room! Make Room! by Harry Harrison
Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson

Do you like science fiction? Do you like it with politics?
