Play for a Kingdom written by Thomas Dyja is a novel about men’s honor and true self-worth during a time of the American Civil War. This war cultivates a persons will to live and willingness to rely on the soldiers who fight next to him. This novel demonstrates that men fighting with each other may have a difference of religion or place of origin; including their heritage, social structure, speech patterns, and native language, however each man is fighting for the same thing. The northern troops were fighting the Rebels to regain a country and the confederate were troops fighting to build a new nation.

One Person can change everything Some readers may argue that one person cannot make a difference because they are just another person. As shown in the movie The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins and Harrison Bergeron there was information on a specific person and how they can make a big difference. So can one person really make a difference?

Suzanne Collin’s “Hunger Games” seems to be about a dystopian society struggle to become a utopia. However, when the readers read further in to the book or watches the movie one can see that is about all the characters that make use human.

For example, in the novel, The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins the leaders from the Capitol show dehumanization on a grand scale with a callous disregard for the value of its citizen’s lives. The annual Hunger Games consist of twenty-four children ages twelve to eighteen, two from each of the twelve districts, who have to fight to the death. These Games occur in an arena which the game makers of the Capitol control with technology. The game makers design the arena to entertain the masses as well as to destroy the teenagers, both physically and psychologically. While the possibility of a scenario like the hyperbolic fictitious world of The Hunger Games is unlikely to happen, especially at such an extreme scale in today’s society, the conditions present in the book are, in fact, prevalent and exist in today’s society. Like her predecessors, Collins dystopian novel serves to warn today’s society. The unjust social hierarchy, the danger of abusive powers and the destructive force of humans stem or lead to dehumanization. In the games, the entire nation of Panem, which make up the twelve districts and the Capitol, watch as these kids fight each other to the death until only one victor is victorious. Leaders that reside in the wealthy Capitol, the body of elites that makes up the government, use the games to flaunt and strengthen their power over the districts by means of oppression and dehumanization to keep them in line.

In a place where poverty is prevalent and a country is ruled by a tyrannical dictator is it possible for an individual to trust others when their own life is always at stake? In the book The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, the main character Katniss Everdeen is a survivor. In the novel she is put into an arena to compete against twenty-three other tributes to the death. This is not the only time during which she has to fend for herself; at home she had to care for her family and keep them alive as well as herself. Due to these conflicts she is better equipped in the environment, she knows what it is like to have nothing, and she hardly trusts anyone that has never experienced life in poverty.

The Hunger Games is a movie based on the book written by Suzanne Collins about the futuristic society of Panem. It is a country based off of what is today North America and is a totalitarian government controlled by what is known as the Capitol. Panem is divided up into twelve different districts and each of those districts is responsible for providing a different resource to the Capitol. These resources are what keep the government in power and give them dominance over the districts, which is also one of the main aspects of conflict theory. The Hunger Games displays how power and oppression can influence social behavior. The Capitol is able to do this with help of their large military known as the peacekeepers, which demonstrates the coercion of the Capitol to keep peace and order in Panem, much like how Conflict theorists believe our society is run. District Twelve, where the main protagonist of the series Katniss Everdeen lives, is responsible for mining. The closer districts to the capitol are responsible for various things such a luxury items and military. In the early years of Panem there was a rebellion against the capitol, which was ultimately lost and resulted in the destruction of the thirteenth district. Because of the treason of the districts, the Capitol created what is known as The Hunger Games. Each year, one boy and one girl are picked at random from each of the districts and fight to the death in a tournament. In the end, only one “tribute” survives and is
