TV: Capital - Applying Marxism

1.
There was a small minority that held power and wealth in which they could use in order to make themselves even more wealthier where they would use their money in order to increase the amount of power they had to rein over the powerless.


2.
The apprentices rely on their powerhead in order to survive in the market and work place. This reinforces the capitalist values and ideologies as there is still one with power and the other without who seeks the powerful in order to survive.

  • Coronation street
  • Waterloo Road
  • EastEnders

4.
Capital includes most of the given bullet points but not all. Capital does showcase the bullet points about the power the group of elites hold against others. This can be seen within a few scenes in the drama such as the meeting scene where even though the 2 bosses have no clue what their job requires, they are still able to show power dominance over the employee. This clearly shows that it does not matter whether the elites have the brains to run the world but they do have the money and status to. Another scene would include the figure differences between people like roger and people like Quintina. Quintina is earning a tiny figure of a few hundred whereas Roger likes to complain at a 30 grand bonus. The inequality between the two is highlighted in areas as those.
