Escaping For Society, By Jon Krakauer

Change is also inevitable no matter how slow it comes. Rebellions simply work as catalysts to the process by sparking new visions in the people and leading them in organized revolt. However, as the French philosopher Albert Camus said “In order to exist, man must rebel, but rebellion must respect the limits that it discovers in itself” (Rebel Quotes). This is an interesting hypothesis as rebellions are meant to break the limits of society, but he’s saying they mustn’t overcome their own bonds.

Merton links anomie with deviance and argues that the discontinuity between culture and structure leads to deviance in society, which is a dysfunction. Using the American Dream as an example, Merton developed the strain theory. Merton argues that while many social groups try to achieve this dream, for some it is not possible.

What had started as a triumph of reason had turned into pure violence and the Aufklärer would have to modify its ideas and reach a new understanding of human reason. A political movement aimed towards the betterment of society through education and culture, many intellectuals like Immanuel Kant, Johann Fichte and Johann Herder and even Romantics like such as Friedrich Schlegel and Novalis saw themselves as belonging to the Aufklärer.

In the novel A Paunch Full of Pesos by Norman Crane and the Film The Quick and the Dead, the protagonists are on a quest to exact revenge on individuals who have harmed them by taking everything that they value away. An analysis of both pieces of literature will show examples of how social norms within societies in the Wild West explore how individuals perceive and react to situations bestowed upon them.

Once people start dwelling on the unfortunate circumstances in their life, rather than choosing to face their adversities, they becoming victims of their own thinking. Seeing themselves as victims are another way of saying, I give up, or I am not responsible; “it's not my fault'' ((Moore, 2007).
