Abstract

Zootopia is an animated film released in 2016 by Walt Disney Animation Studios. This movie not only offers entertainment for various audiences, but also conveys a deep social message about resistance to stereotypes and discrimination. This study uses narrative theory. Todorov (1971) put forward the concept of "equilibrium-disequilibrium-new equilibrium" in narrative structure, which suggests that the story begins in a state of equilibrium, experiences disruption, and finally returns to a new equilibrium. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive approach. The primary data used in this study comes from the film Zootopia (2016). While secondary data comes from articles and film reviews, such as academic articles, film critic reviews, and media analysis regarding Zootopia. This study aims to analyze how Zootopia represents and challenges stereotypes and discrimination through its narrative and characterization. It will explore the strategies and actions used by the characters to defy prejudice and prove their abilities beyond narrow social expectations. Through its complex characters and meaningful plot, the movie invites audiences to reflect on the impact of prejudice and discrimination, and the importance of inclusion and equality.

Abstract

This study examines social class inequality in 1912 English society as reflected in J.B. Priestley’s play An Inspector Calls. The play highlights the structure of society based on powerful class differences, where the upper class represented by the Birling family and Gerald Croft have privileges that the working class represented by Eva Smith does not have. The study uses a mimetic approach that views literature as a reflection of human life. To explore how inequality is portrayed through interactions between characters, this study uses a qualitative descriptive method. In addition, it uses the concept of base and superstructure in Marxism to examine how the economic structure (base) shapes and maintains social norms, ideologies, and institutions (superstructure) to perpetuate the dominance of the bourgeoisie over the working class. The results of this study reveal three main aspects: labor exploitation, class domination and social control, and gender inequality in capitalism. The results show that An Inspector Calls not only serves as a play, but also as a critique of capitalist society, by exposing how the economic structure maintains class-based oppression.
