Abstract

This study applies Michel Foucault’s theory of power and resistance to explore how the school maintains control over students and how the students fight back. It reveals how the school uses power/knowledge to create rules and disciplinary power to enforce the system and rules in maintaining control. Students resist through micro-resistance by questioning the system and rules, and through strategic, tactical, and counter-conduct resistance by protesting the system and rules. The analysis shows the school establishes control by informing and threatening students, and by intimidating and punishing them. To resist, students question the rules in the conversations with friends and the headmaster, and protest by breaking the teacher’s metronome and complaining to the government. This study concludes that the school’s use of violence to maintain power contradicts Foucault's concept of power and leads to students' resistance, highlighting their desire for a fairer environment.

Abstract

This paper analyzes the anxieties and defense mechanisms experienced by the main character in Joker (2019), a psychological thriller that portrays the marginalization of individuals with mental illness. This film is interesting to analyze because it reflects real world issues, where people with mental illness are marginalized and mistreated by the society around them. The psychoanalysis theory of anxiety and defense mechanisms by Sigmund Freud is applied to analyse Arthur Fleck as the main character. He is a mentally unstable guy who works as a party clown. The findings show that Arthur’s anxieties are due to the mistreatments he received from people around him. Arthur went through reality, neurotic, and moral anxieties in his life, mainly because of the child abuse, rejection, the threats of cutting his paycheck, and the fear of breaking the social and moral standards. In response to these anxieties, Arthur ego applies defense mechanisms of repression, displacement, and rationalization. Repression is used to handle his neurotic anxiety. Displacement is used to manage his reality anxiety. Rationalization is used to cope with his reality and moral anxieties. In conclusion, although a person with a mental illness faces more hostile situations causing anxieties, he can handle them by himself.
