In a Dystopian World Visual

Here is a visual that will aid in the understanding of how a protagonist and an antagonist look in Dystopian Literature.  Basically, the CONTROL serves as the antagonist that the protagonist must overcome.  But, that control can take on the form of a person, as President Snow stands in for BUREAUCRATIC CONTROL in The Hunger Games, as does the Handicapper General in "Harrison Bergeron". Or, say the townspeople with their PHILOSOPHICAL BELIEFS in "The Lottery". The characters become symbols of the control.
