It seems that you have missed the necessary options for us to answer this question so I had to look for it. Anyway, here is the answer. According to "Introduction to Cultural Rebellion: Mid-Twentieth-Century Voices," what motivated both science fiction and beat generation authors in the United States after World War II is the disillusionment with modern society. Hope this helps.

Both science fiction and beat generation authors were motivated by the reality of a modern post-war society, in which there was a possibility of a new war, which happened in Vietnam, which had a great impact on everyday life in America. While middle-aged people valued conformism, beat generation mostly blamed their parents for the state in the country, heading for a mass rebellion against such an established way of life, favoring love, peace, adopting new religions, science fiction ideas, etc. In one word, both of them motivated the political dangers of a society that values conformity and their disagreement with modern society.
