In this way, an integrative perspective is built that also takes into account the relation of works and authors to the framework of both local and external production. It is thus demonstrated that in our country, science fiction was born independently of Western hegemonic centers, then, with its specificity, dialogue with the important development of this narrative and build an identity of their own
