Historical Strategies.

Out of all three of the strategies that we needed to read, the one that I think fits with We the most is the historical strategy. The Marxist Criticism fits well because it focuses on culture, race, class, and power. I think this fits because it seems as if the One State is all based off of power.  Also since the book is written as a look into the future, it describes our society today.  Since that is what keeps the world going around everyone wants power and wants money and to work their way up the ladder of "success."

I do think that all three strategies could all fit, but the historical one stood out the most to me.

  1. Yeah I do. I think the One State and the "unnumbered" people. I also think that D-503 is battling himself too in a sense just because he wants to do thinking against the One State, but he seems hesitant too.
