摘要：This paper aspires to represent the deconstruction of race in Post-cyberpunk literature through the exemplification of Accelerando (2005). The researchers aim to depict the deconstruction of racial identity as social construct. The analysis is based upon the Postmodern lens of deconstruction of Metanarratives, Race as a Social Construction, and Gramsci's notion of Hegemony. Triangulation of the above theories tends to validate the ontological analysis of the selected novel. Critical works of prominent Cyberpunk/post-cyberpunk thinkers, theory of Race and Hegemony, and researches based on the novel Accelerando are briefly discussed in the literature review not only to suggest the contemporary significance of Post-cyberpunk as a medium to deconstruct social identities/realities but also to identify the gaps in the existing researches done of Accelerando. The socio-cognitive approach is used as a method of analysis for Critical Discourse Analysis specifically deals with power relations. The race is also a means of power through which the dominant seeks to control the subordinate. This research aims to suggest that race is socially constructed; therefore, it can be deconstructed. Post-cyberpunk literature exemplifies the current trends of today's world, whether social or technological. Racism is a socially constructed vice that divides humanity into segments; hence it is required of the contemporary discourses to decenter such grand narratives that perpetuate hegemonic boundaries. Critical discussion based upon the parameters mentioned above concludes that Post-cyberpunk narratives are instrumental in the subversion of race and any such metanarratives that segregate humans into binaries.
