Popular culture in the contemporary sense of the term is closely connected with consumerism. According to John Fiske, popular culture is a culture contradictory in itself. In his set of dystopian visions of a europe set in the near and, as it appears, unavoidable future – Cocaine Nights and super-Cannes – J.G. Ballard presented two capitalist utopias. Like most critical utopias, these novels contain some dystopian elements, and this paper attempts to portray the novels as a presentation of a world where money and progress are the two undisputed authorities. After a separate analysis of both settings, the conclusion is reached that in these two novels the popular culture is the culture of violence used to fight the established system.
