The themes of utopia and dystopia are common in science fiction due to the similarities in the two realities altogether. Utopias are meant to be seemingly perfect worlds, but have lurking problems underneath the apparent surface, creating dystopia-like society when the looming problem(s) are unmasked to the general public/to the protagonist(s). Dystopias, as the question states, are based off of real world problems, yet are enlarged and escalated in the work. The only difference between a utopia and a dystopia is that a utopia tries to hide its problems. A dystopia doesn’t. This means that themes between the two are similar due to the similarity in societal issues.
