* Danish author Dennis Jürgensen wrote a book titled ''Dystopia'', which hits all the main points, and offers an interesting solution... two youths from a dystopia where the 'social issues' are xenophobia, intolerance and mistrust, are thrown into a [[Fish Out of Water]] situation in another world, literally named 'Dystopia', where the issue is apathy and defeatism. Can two different, and equally flawed, attitudes cancel each others out? Maybe so. Good luck finding a translation of that book, tho...
* ''[[This Perfect Day]]'' by Ira Levin depicts a communist technocratic dystopia controlled by a computer. In fact at the end it is revealed that the computer is controlled by a programmer elite.
* Margaret Atwood's ''[[The Handmaids Tale|The Handmaid's Tale]]''. Everything is rationed by the theocratic government - including women.
** More precisely, the fertile women; the environment's a mess.
* The People's Republic of Haven from the ''[[Honor Harrington]]'' series practically defines this trope.
