(Huxley) A cacotopia; a utopia in which the pictured culture is an undesirable one.

Dystopia is the most common term.

In William Shakespeare's The Tempest, Miranda says, "How many goodly creatures are there here! How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world, That has such people in't!" This is the source of Aldous Huxley's title for his 1932 novel, which includes many Shakespeare quotations.
