Consciousness is generally known to consist of two categories: the individual (psychological) and the social (collective, sociological). The individual consciousness is described as the moral compass, which determines what is wrong or right, or as the intuitive values that the individuals internalize in the process of identifying, comprehending, understanding and realizing themselves and the events taking place around them. As to social consciousness, it refers to the behavioral patterns, perceptions and ways of thinking that have been concretized in the joint institutional organizations by the individuals’ adding the conscience that they inherited from the previous generations with the conscience that they accumulate in accordance with the zeitgeist during their lifespans. Social consciousness, as it is subjective, has a quality that distinguishes one society from others; and as it comes ahead of the individual consciousness and also follows it, it is independent of the individual consciousness and goes beyond it. In a similar vein, Durkheim, too, states that there are two different kinds of solidarity formed up within societies, and that the social consciousness has been shaped up in parallel with these two manners of solidarity: the mechanical, based on the assimilation of the individuals, and the organic, based on the distinctness of the individuals. Durkheim, additionally, argues that social events, which are the flux of social consciousness, develop independently from individual consciousness; and dominate and shape upon the will of the individual. When we look at the social structures of the societies on which dystopian novels, (which describe a dark future in which pressure or domination is overwhelming for individuals or certain segments of society), shape their settings, it can be argued that these societies are more mechanically bounded societies. The novel Swastika Night, written by the English writer Katharine Burdekin in 1937 under the pseudonym Murray Constantine, based its setting on a period when Hitler was in power and a social consciousness with mechanical solidarity was in circulation. In accordance with the explanations above, reading Catharine Burdekin’s Swastika Night, which is categorized as a feminist dystopia in the framework of Durkheim’s collective consciousness, this article aims to underline that the collective consciousness is more vulnerable against manipulations in the societies in which mechanical solidarity prevails.
