Resumo

The current climatic and environmental changes have been bringing
about a number of new anxieties, mostly consolidated in concepts such as the
Anthropocene and the Capitalocene, which can be seen as partially responsible for the
rise in interest in dystopian fiction since the early years of the 21 st century. However, a
possible new trend is found in contemporary dystopian fiction from the Global South,
inviting a reassessment of the very foundations of what we understand this trope to be.
The present article wishes to discuss some of these trends using the novel Migrations
(2022), by Charlotte McConaghy, as an example.
