摘要

社会冲突是日常生活中的一种常见现象。从根本上说,社会冲突的发生是因为两个群体之间存在利益差异。因此,这引发了社会的变革。不仅在现实生活中,冲突也可以在文学作品中体现,比如科尔森-怀特海德的小说《镍男孩》。小说讲述了美国黑人和白人社会中发生的社会冲突,尤其是在镍学院发生的冲突。此外,本研究旨在确定小说中社会冲突的形式及其对社会变革的影响。本研究属于文学批评范畴,采用文学社会学的方法,运用了拉尔夫-达伦多夫的冲突理论。本研究的数据取自科尔森-怀特海德(Colson Whitehead)的小说《镍矿男孩》,该小说于2019年由美国道布尔戴出版社出版。研究数据通过识别、分类、解释和得出结论的方式进行分析。这项研究得出了两个结论。首先,小说中的社会冲突是通过尼克尔学院发生的几起歧视行为来体现的。这种社会冲突的发生是由于社会结构中不同群体之间利益和目标的差异造成的,即社会结构处于上层(上级群体)的镍学院教职工群体和社会结构处于下层(下级群体)的镍学院学生群体之间的利益和目标差异。其次,小说中发生的社会冲突对社会变革产生了影响,而社会变革与镍学院的社会结构有关。这种变化表现为美国政府取消了原有的社会结构。此外,研究人员建议未来的研究人员使用另一种方法,如结构主义、心理学或其他方法。此外,他们还可以使用其他冲突理论,如卡尔-马克思、刘易斯-科塞或乔治-西美尔的冲突理论。

Social Conflict and Social Change in Colson Whitehead’s The Nickel Boys
Social conflict is a common phenomenon in everyday life. Basically, social conflict occurs because of differences in interests between the two groups. As a result, this triggers the emergence of social change in society. Not only in real life but conflict can also be represented in literary works, such as in the novel The Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead. The novel tells about the social conflicts that occurr in black and white US society, especially at the Nickel Academy. Furthermore, this study aims to determine the form and impact of social conflict on social change in the novel. This research is included in literary criticism, which uses the sociology of literature approach by applying Ralf Dahrendorf's conflict theory. The data in this study were taken from the novel The Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead, which was published in 2019 by Doubleday, US. Research data were analyzed by identifying, classifying, interpreting, and making conclusions. This research resulted in two findings. First, the social conflict in the novel is represented through several acts of discrimination that occur at Nickel Academy. This social conflict occurred as a result of differences in interests and goals between groups in the social structure there, namely the Nickel Academy staff group, which has the above social structure (superordinate group) and the Nickel Academy student group, which has the lower social structure (subordinate group). Second, the social conflict that occurs in the novel has an impact on social change which is related to the social structure that exists in the Nickel Academy. This change is represented by the removal of the social structure that was there by the US government. Moreover, the researcher suggests future researchers use another approach, such as structuralism, psychology, or others. In addition, they can also use other conflict theories, such as the conflict theory of Karl Marx, Lewis A. Coser, or George Simmel.
