Více o knize

Focusing on the episode "Men Against Fire" from Black Mirror, this seminar paper delves into postcolonial themes of othering and dehumanization. It outlines these concepts before applying them to the episode's narrative and underlying messages. Key discussions include the dynamics of individual versus group identity, in-group favoritism, out-group homogeneity, and how language influences human identity. The analysis highlights the mechanisms of inter-group discrimination and the significance of naming in shaping perceptions of humanity.
