5) The discourse of Power and Politics in Harry Potter:
"There is no good or evil. There is only power": Voldemort.
Foucault: Knowledge is created by those who are in power position about Those who are not in power.
#Power operates from:
The power-politics operates in form of suspension of Albus Dumbledore and Hagrid sent to the prison of Azkaban. The school was taken under the Ministry of Magic and thus they appointed new professors like Umbridge. Now school becomes a place to control young wizards and witches. Wizards have power on muggle people who don’t no magic. Wizards tortured and murdered the muggles which are documented in the newspaper. Power of Media at some point plays an important role where wrong news about Harry and Dumbledore are printed by Rita Skeeter. Here Media used to control the resistance of people by spreading wrong news. ministry has tried to hide the news of Voldemort and for that, they have used newspaper. Dolores Umbridge is used by J.K. Rowling to attack all those regressive reformists in the education system. Even if Harry is right about Voldemort, she punishes him to write 'I will not tell lies'. She discourages progress. She is for the preservation of the past. She believes in prohibitions, decency in cloths and behavior. She is for theoretical exams rather than practical. It is through her that Ministry interferes Hogwarts schooling system.
The book "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" is very meaningful from the perspective of power-politics. Dumbledore is charged with conspiracy and sedition. The hearing of Harry's expulsion from school as he used magic in muggle-world is highly charged with political signs. The time of preponed, Dumbledore was not informed about timings, newspaper Daily Prophet used to malign Harry's reputation, use of rules/laws to harass those not in power.
Ministry has appointed People those who believe in the purity of blood and thus the structure and statues of freedom were replaced by the statues in which muggles were crushed under the structure.
