Fictional Writing in the Context of Politics and Society


The contemporary political literature generally traces down the issues like democratic reforms and the problems that concern the rural poor of developing countries. The best way to explore politics is to jot down your experiences as a researcher and journalist which most of them do today. The vast literature questions the prevailing notions in the political world and society as well as demarcates the desperate hopelessness and choice.

About Issues Bothering Rural Masses

The writings also talk of the power play that goes behind policy shortfalls at the Centre while neglecting the rural masses as a substantial part of the population. The current texts draw upon issues of the rural poor leading to farmer suicides - a burning topic throughout the developing nations. Mainly, the literature talks of ways through which agriculture can make an impact to bring farmers out of their miseries. Go to the South-Central part and you have to deal with the tyranny of moneylenders and repercussions of crop failures.

Dynastic Politics

Furthermore, the sensitive political fiction genre deals with dynastic politics as well as the pressure that drives young politicians to achieve success in the power circles. There is a lot to it when stories unravel the happenings that occur behind closed doors of the Parliament. The news becomes sensational if it is resulted from a sting operation or conversations secretly recorded in tapes. The topics range from the role played by corporate houses in the appointment of union ministers to the way such politicians survive their actions during communal riots.

Piling Debts and Sufferings of a Farmer

The fictional writing on politics and society touches upon aspects like the rural life dependent upon agriculture in the changing global world. In developing world, the sufferings of an individual farmer can be of great interest to the readers as it is a constant battle against odds every day. The discussions ripe in the political societies these days are that of farmer suicides triggered by successive crop failures and the piling burden of debt. Moreover, it is about what happens to family members who await compensation in the aftermath.

Corruption in Government Institutions

On the other side are people who stand up to bringing justice to the deceased. The two different worlds collide including those who fight against such inheritance of despair and those who wish to keep their inheritance of power. The idea behind such authors picking up pen is to raise voices against corruption rooted in all areas covering government and politics. The descriptions raise questions over the legitimacy of institutions of democracy and governance.

Too Much Of Politics Over Policy: 5 Considerations

Is the American system of governing, and political system, wounded, destroyed, weakened, or, merely, undergoing a period, of extreme distress? Those, who have followed politics, and the national news, for decades, realize and recognize, there is widespread apathy, within our electorate, which probably, largely explains, our relatively, low, voter turnout! In addition, many, who vote, do so, based on the empty promises, and rhetoric of political candidates, as well as their perceptions, personal biases, and prejudice, and, rather than hopes and aspirations, focus on self - interest! Unfortunately, we often, witness, far too much emphasis on partisan politics, over, quality policy, and the needs of the American people. With that in mind, this article will attempt to briefly review, examine, and consider, using the mnemonic approach, many of these concerns, and considerations. 1. Political/ personal agenda: Who should, versus, who do, elected officials, actually serve, and represent? T...

Political Blogs - How to Write Them Effectively

For years you've probably been hearing about blogs, bloggers, the blogosphere, and all things "bloggy". When most people hear the term blog they might think of some geek in their underwear writing unimportant and pointless stuff for other geeks to read. While many blogs might be like this, political blogs are of a different class. Political blogs can be very informative, enlightening, and funny. If you like politics and think you have what it takes to write a blog on politics, you came to the right place. I'm going to share a few tips with you on how to write a great political blog. Even if you don't know how to write like a journalist it doesn't matter -all you need is passion (and a little knowledge). If you don't have strong political opinions then let me stop you right there and suggest you pick a different topic than politics. In order to write a great blog on politics you have to have politics on the brain, meaning, you have to be a politic...

Political Correctness and Bigotry

The word "bigot" gets thrown around all the time in politics, and in many cases it is wrongly placed. I got accused of being a bigot when I suggested that peaceful Muslim-Americans should report those Muslim-Americans who intend terrorist action. This is not bigotry, it is reason. The Muslim-American communities are tight-knit, and people there are in a position to know who is planning what action. So getting them to report the terrorists is simple common sense. I, for one, am as far from being a bigot as anyone can be. Many of my best friends are black or Hindu, and I am myself a Russian-Jewish immigrant. If I can be accused of being a bigot, then what hope is there for anyone else? Cultures differ, and practices in them differ. If something exists at a higher rate of chance, then there are going to be reasons for it, even if those are not the reasons that you expect. Most stereotypes have their roots in reality, even when those roots differ from one's expectat...
