Power in the novel "Thank you for smoking" by Christopher Buckley (a sociological approach)
the writer found that the academy through Nick Taylor gains power and finally influences society with the following: language, mass media, and bribe. the writer divided the society's response into two; pro and contra tobacco. consumerism and libertarianism cover those pro tobacco while anti-consumerism and environmentalism cover those contra tobacco. power is highly relevant with the language, better known as rhetoric, and the ever-growing the mass media. this leads to cultural hegemony as the neo colonialism and imperialism in globalization era.
