The Conflict Perspective in Maus

In the book, Maus, there is about four different groups in the society. These groups are known as the Jews (mouses), Nazi party (cats), Americans (dogs) and Polish (pigs). The Jews struggle for food and for their lives in the concentration camps and this is all dealing with the fact that the Nazi is fighting for power over them, the Polish, and the Americans. The Jews are in conflict with the Nazi, while the Americans are in conflict with the Nazi. Throughout the book, it shaped the group’s ethnic. The ethnic is their religion, and how the Nazi disagrees with their beliefs. This shaped how their society, or at least some part, believed that all it was okay to abuse the Jews. The conflict was all over the power and ethnic.
