Фентъзи -- утопия на равновесието
Fantasy -- the equilibrium utopia

Summary/Abstract: The extremely popular since the middle of the 20th century, fantasy-genre that creates an alternative universe is examined here in relation with utopia - the other genre of the alternative. The main article thesis is that utopia has not disappeared from contemporary world but only is transformed in a way that makes it diffi cult to be recognised. In this context, utopia is analysed not in its fi nal result perspective – a model of universal happiness, which is organised around the problem of social justice and progress. The post-modern utopia is a dynamic one and deals more with happiness - the aim that single person and the society as a whole make it to. But happiness is not rooted in equality, nor is it related to progress – both, social and technological one. The fantasy-genre is seen here as a utopia of the road, personal realisation, responsibility toward the others, and in the end, as a balance, which is the sole fi rm foundation on which it appears that happiness could be based – both the individual and the common one.
