Apocalyptic Theory refers to a perspective that explains social change through the expectation of a dramatic and catastrophic end to the existing social order, followed by the emergence of a new and better society. The term "apocalypse" originates from the Greek word *apokalypsis*, meaning "revelation" or "unveiling." In social science, the theory is associated with beliefs that the present world or social system will eventually collapse because of moral decay, conflict, natural disasters, war, or divine intervention. This collapse is expected to pave the way for the establishment of a transformed social, political, or spiritual order. The roots of Apocalyptic Theory can be traced to religious traditions such as Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism, where sacred texts describe the end of the world or the end of an age.

In social science, however, apocalyptic ideas are studied not as predictions of the future but as social beliefs that influence human behaviour, collective action, and social movements. Apocalyptic Theory assumes that societies experience periods of severe crisis that cannot be resolved through ordinary reforms. Such crises may include widespread poverty, environmental degradation, political instability, economic collapse, pandemics, or armed conflict. During such periods, people may lose confidence in existing institutions and become more receptive to beliefs about an impending transformation. These expectations often motivate individuals
