Similarly, Sarmiento’s Facundo resembles El matadero as the writer explores the dichotomy between civilisation and barbarism also criticising Rosas’ tyranny. In order to analyse the portrayal of barbarism in El matadero I will look at the background of Argentina’s politics and Echeverría’s influences. Next, I will study the way in which Echeverría employs language to represent barbarism. And lastly, I will examine how he uses symbolism and allegory which appear to be the most essential devices in the story. Echeverría started his political protest through literature on coming back from Paris to the ruthless regime of Rosas, whose chaotic leadership led to dreadful murders of the Unitarists.
Winston secretly started to defy certain rules and started thinking against Big Brother. He started writing in his and “Down With Big Brother” which would have got him tortured or even murdered.

Piyush Kumar “People should not be afraid of their governments, governments should be afraid of their people” V for Vendetta, by Alan Moore, is alternate history graphic novel about a masked man trying to bring down the totalitarian state he lives in.

Throughout the book, he points out the faults of the government, mainly pressing the point that their leadership is kept strong by the citizens’ fear of critiquing it. He says fear is the control factor of this government.

‘Twelve Angry Men’ is a naturalistic play, written by Reginald Rose who shows that conflict can impact on all people, and its factors are what make the issue of prejudice, justice and the case of personal experience. Prejudice is one of many factors that contribute on conflict, how it is gone about, and the way it prevents people from acting towards others.

While Rose showcases the effect of prejudice and its impact on conflict, he endures using his jury, the major influence personal experience has on people, and each other, making the decision from come personally.
However the central committee and the politburo refused to order Ruitin’s execution, Stalin viewed this as a betrayal. In December 1934, Kirov was murdered by Nikolayev who claimed was working for a secret terror group who wanted to overthrow the soviet government; however Zinoviev and Kamenev were arrested for the conspiracy of Kirov’s Murder. This murder rid Stalin of his most powerful rival, whilst allowing him to imprison two of his old opponents, basically “two birds with one stone”. The Murder of Kirov allowed Stalin to establish dictatorship because with the death of Kirov, it gave Stalin an excuse to purge and the purges became more systematic and far-reaching.In the spring of 1937, Stalin argued that the conspiracy against the Soviet people was not restricted to the forty or so people involved in the show trials, and so the start of the purges against the party and army began. The effects on the party were dramatic.

Kreon believes if he does not kill Antigone he will no longer be one of the best rulers that people will look up too. This quote is important because it explains how Kreon begins to commit hubris.
Nevertheless one murder didn't comfort him, he thinks he needs to secure his position. So he goes off and hires hit men to kill who he thinks is his enemy, the one who can take his power, Banqo. Soon enough he finds himself ordering the slaughter of a traitors family, which is when remorse never enters his thoughts. Macbeth’s greed and ambitions are the sheer motivators of his killings and that is evident throughout the journey of the play. As Shakespeare once wrote , “Fair is foul and foul is fair” (Act I, Sc.I, Line
Because of this, he decides he must kill Banquo, so that there will be no heir. “Macbeth plots the murder of Banquo, out of jealousy and insecurity.” (Hompi 1) This is obviously an absurd idea, and prior to Macbeth’s murder of King Duncan he never would have considered it as a solution. Shakespeare uses this to show how power corrupts even the best of people. It is obvious that this is still a problem in society today, as people start off with good intentions but slowly get sidetracked. Before long, their objectives have changed completely.
“And if we miss one were finished.” However, they’re still trying to control and kill them. “We’ll get him,” Wisdom muttered, “I’ve had the government declare an emergency. Military and Civil Police will be looking for him.” If they were trying to only keep them humans safe they don’t need to make evolve the military.
