Description
Summary:This research joins the endless question asked by the human being since it aims to analyze the concepts of humanization and dehumanization of science fiction pieces: The Time Machine by H. G. Wells, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. Dick and The Road by Cormac McCarthy. In order to achieve this, a qualitative methodology was implemented, which allowed to establish a close dialogue with the novels (The relationship they have with the social-historical moment to which they register, how future societies are configured and the role of science and technology in each of them was also taken into account). Additionally, to complement the analysis with the knowledge of teachers who are experts in science fiction literature. Broadly speaking, it is concluded that humanization is every act that comes from the human being. Consequently, dehumanization is a concept that is immersed in the previous one. It is also determined that the works are presented as a metaphor of the social-historical reality to which they belong and that the novels portray warnings about the ideologies of their historical moment that today are still a reason for reflection.
