A Study of the Dominant's ideology and its hegemony over the marginal in Joanne Kathleen Rowling's Harry Potter Series

This thesis focuses on the Dominant?s ideology and how the Dominant
maintain the hegemony over the Marginal. In Harry Potter series, the society of
magical world is split into two groups, the Dominant and the Marginal. The
Dominant want to lead the society by maintaining the hegemony over the
Marginal. Therefore, I want to find out what is the Dominant?s ideology and to
analyze the Dominant?s hegemony over the Marginal. As I use cultural approach,
I use the theories of ideology and hegemony. In my analysis, I use the Harry
Potter?s society point of view to observe the Dominant?s hegemony over the
Marginal and how the Marginal respond to the hegemony. I analyze the Dominant
ideology which consist of purity, social and political status, honor and wealth. I
will also analyze how they maintain the hegemony over the Marginal, how they
apply their ideologies in the society. Last but not least, I also want to find out
what the Marginal responses about the hegemony. As a conclusion, the Marginal
can get out of the Dominant?s oppressions and finally get an acknowledgement
from the society.
