P34: The World Of Mockingjay

Ideology: In this article the ideology is those who have a higher status and are in control usually have most or even all of the power due to dictatorship amongst everyone else. The world is caught under dictatorship of President Snow, he is a man who believes more in his own power than the people in his country that are under his control. The aim was to add his ideas into the games to vanish any thoughts or hope of rebellion against him so he can stay in power which is common amongst people that are in power as they want to obtain this power rather than getting overrun. This is due to his ideology of hope being stronger than fear meaning removing any signs of hope would lead to his people embracing fear erasing all signs of rebellion. 

Dystopia and propaganda: The article states that those in power eventually lose power. This is because although they hold most of the power, those who are inferior to the government will rebel to take control. The one who has the most power in the districts is Katnis and she uses propaganda to influence the need for rebellion as she hacks into Capitol system and publishes a video of a hospital being bombed by the Capitols. This was to gain hope for the people under the control of the government who had fear injected into them. Katnis uses the power of the T.V to help deliver he message across to the world stating that the Capitol is cruel and is not right.



P48: They Live

Ideology: This article is about the ideology in Britain changing as new ideas emerges, however there are also 3 dominant ideologies that society accepts or agree. These 3 are people putting their families first, working hard for money and women to behave in a feminine way. These ideologies are often accepted throughout society as they've been around for so long. On the other hand some people challenge this view in society as they may see this to be a sexist thing or even out of date(new ideologies that are modern and to do with with society in today's century).
