Question

According to "Introduction to Cultural Rebellion: Mid-Twentieth-Century Voices," what motivated both science fiction and beat generation authors in the United States after World War II?

Answer 1

Both science fiction and beat generation authors were motivated by the reality of a modern post-war society, in which there was a possibility of a new war, which happened in Vietnam, which had a great impact on everyday life in America. While middle-aged people valued conformism, beat generation mostly blamed their parents for the state in the country, heading for a mass rebellion against such an established way of life, favoring love, peace, adopting new religions, science fiction ideas, etc. In one word, both of them motivated the political dangers of a society that values conformity and their disagreement with modern society.
