man vs. society
"Man vs. society" is a common theme in literature and storytelling where an individual struggles against the norms, values, or laws of their community. This conflict often highlights the tension between personal beliefs and societal expectations, showcasing how individuals can feel alienated or oppressed by the collective.
In these narratives, characters may face challenges such as discrimination, censorship, or moral dilemmas that arise from societal pressures. Examples include classic works like The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger or To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, where protagonists confront the injustices and limitations imposed by their societies.
