Collection: POLITICAL & SOCIAL SCIENCE
The Political Fiction/Non-Fiction genre is made up of stories that provide commentary on political events, systems, and theories through a narrative tone. The books in this genre often directly criticize an existing society or present an alternative to an existing society or political structure.
Social Science Fiction/Non-Fiction is a subgenre of science fiction, usually (but not necessarily) soft science fiction, concerned less with technology/space opera and more with speculation about society. In other words, it "absorbs and discusses anthropology" and speculates about human behavior and interactions.
