RACISM INSTITUTIONAL IN ANIME 86 – EIGHTY SIX – AND ITS CORRELATION WITH NAZI RACIST POLICIES
Abstract
Abstract
Purpose – The research aims to identify forms of institutional racism in the anime and link them to historical systematic discrimination by the Nazi regime.
Methodology - Using a qualitative approach with literary sociology and Beverly Daniel Tatum's theory of racism, data was collected through observation and note-taking of the anime and its source novel, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The findings reveal that the San Magnolia government in the anime implements policies of identity erasure, systematic discrimination, and efforts to exterminate the Eighty Six, paralleling Nazi policies against Jews, such as citizenship revocation, segregation, and genocide.
Findings - The study concludes that 86 -Eighty Six- not only reflects institutional racism as a narrative backdrop but also critiques how states can institutionalize discrimination leading to the eradication of specific groups. This research broadens understanding of racism representation in popular media through historical and sociological perspectives.
