At least 17 doctoral dissertations and seven master’s theses had been devoted to the Harry Potter books.en:FD källa There are also several university courses centered on analysis of the Potter series, including an upper division en:Political Science course.en:FD Källa Time Magazine noted the political and social aspects of Harry Potter in their 2007 en:Person of the Year issue. Rowling was ranked third against politicians en:Vladimir Putin and en:Al Gore.en:FD Källa Harry Potter's social and political impact has been compared to en:Harriet Beecher Stowe's popular, but similarly critically maligned, book en:Uncle Tom's Cabin, that fueled the en:abolitionist movement leading up to the en:American Civil War.en:FD Källor When asked about the politics and message in Harry Potter, Rowling explained, "I wanted Harry to leave our world and find exactly the same problems in the wizarding world. So you have the intent to impose a en:hierarchy, you have en:bigotry, and this notion of purity, which is this great fallacy, but it crops up all over the world. People like to think themselves superior and that if they can pride themselves in nothing else they can pride themselves on perceived purity. So yeah that follows a parallel [to en:Nazism]. It wasn't really exclusively that. I think you can see in the Ministry even before it's taken over, there are parallels to en:regimes we all know and love." en:FD KällaShe also said, "You should en:question authority and you should not assume that en:the establishment or en:the press tells you all of the truth."en:FD Källor
