On Taris, there is the idea of 'the perfect child', one that complies, comforms, behaves, doesn't speak against the laws and leaders... To make sure that this happens, there is a system where the parents of the child choose the traits of the baby. In 'The Giver', there they aren't exactly altering or enhancing the traits of the baby but instead, they have certain expectations. If the child is too light or isn't fit to stay, they are sent 'elsewhere'. If the child qualifies, they are put into a chosen family unit.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Government Authorities:
Both 'The Giver' and 'Juno of Taris' have similar totalitarian governments. The Elders in 'The Giver' closely resemble the Governance Companions (GCs) in 'Juno of Taris.' The GCs are a committee of community members, and are incredibly well-respected and trusted; it is believed by all that they would never lie, and the Elders are treated in the same respect. The Elders and the GCs also have secrets that they hide; whether it be the community's true history, like in 'Juno of Taris', or things like colour and memory, like in 'The Giver', the governmental systems are built on fraud.
2. Communal Meetings:
The tri-weekly communal meetings of Taris were very similar to the regular meetings of the Community. The communities all had to come together to discuss anything the Governmental System deemed necessary. However, in Taris they discussed issues of the community and watched films to receive education whereas the people of Jonas' Community went to the meetings to partake in formal proceedings, like Ceremony of Loss.
3. Family Structure:
The family structure in 'The Giver' and 'Juno of Taris' are very similar. Parents are assigned children, and may only have two, but the gender of these kids in 'The Giver' can only be one boy and one girl. As well as this, in 'The Giver', children are born through the Birth Mothers, whereas in 'Juno of Taris', the egg is put into the actual mother and births it naturally. Parents are assigned to each other in 'The Giver', yet in 'Juno of Taris, they 'choose' themselves - this term is kind of loose, as they are only allowed to marry within their learning stratum, and they are all promised off to eachother.

# data[].attributes.body
1) Control of citizens
In Both 'Juno of Taris' and 'The giver' the government has complete control over the citizens lives. This is displayed through each of the individuals in both texts being told what to wear, how to act and what their appearance should be. In 'juno of Taris' the people are forced to have their heads shaven and wear nothing other than their tunics and similarly in 'The Giver the people have to wear there assigned clothing however they are allowed to grow their hair.

2) A rebellious protagonist
Both 'Juno of Taris' and 'The Giver' there is a rebellious protagonist who is different from everybody else in the society and who's motives are to bring change within the society. For example in 'Juno of Taris' everyone is to dress a certain way, shave their heads and comply to whatever the Governance companions say. Juno however wishes to grow her hair and wear what she wants, and works to bring freedom into Taris with the help of some friends. Similarly When Jonas finds out the truth to the world as he receives memories of the past from the Giver, he works to bring memories back to everyone and remove sameness for good.

3) The dystopian genre
Both 'Juno of Taris' and the 'Giver' are both texts that are of the Dystopian genre. This is because both of the texts are controlled by an overbearing government, the citizens are under constant surveillance in Juno's case through gossip, and in Jonas's case, cameras. The communities are also made to cover the distress and destruction of the outside world, for example in 'Juno of taris' it was because of war and famine and in 'the Giver' it was because of war.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Education
In both Juno of Taris and The Giver an education of some sort is compulsory. In Juno of Taris they are placed into 'leaning stratums' and they stay in that stratum for the rest of their lives but in The Giver they are in age groups and once they get to a certain age they are given jobs and they are no longer with their learning group.

2. Climate Control
On Taris the temperature is constantly the same and it only rains at certain times of the day they also have geographical features such as a mountain and bays such as 'Calico Bay', where as in The Giver they don't have rain, snow, mountains, and waterways.

3. Control of Citizens
On both Taris and The Community there is control over the citizens, but it is quite different, for example on Taris they are forced to shave their heads and they are illiterate but in The Community they are under constant surveillance and if they do something wrong they may get 'released to elsewhere'.

# data[].attributes.body
1) Climate Control
Climate control is shown in both the film 'The Giver' and the novel 'Juno of Taris' by having set times of when the weather is perfect and when it is not, this isn't demonstrated as much but because climate control is a thing in 'The Giver', the climate in the community is perfect, more as in 'Juno of Taris' they have a set time of when it is going to rain and usually that occurs in the evening.

2) Dystopian Genre
Both the novel of 'Juno of Taris' and the film 'The Giver' both demonstrate Dystopian genre due to the fact that both of the scripts states that 'the communities' are under the surveillance of a government of some sort, for example in the novel 'Juno of Taris ' the government is technically the governess companions and in the film 'the giver' it was the chef elders and the elders.
The government in both the dystopian novels advertise the community/ society to be a perfect utopia, but because the government uses propaganda the people think they live in a perfect world.

3) Control of Citizens
The communities are both controlled by some government, the government is technically the governess companions and in the film 'the giver' it was the chef elders and the elders.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Transport/technology:
Transport - On Taris, everyone is required to walk or run everywhere while in The Giver Community, when the citizens reach the age of 9, they are given a bike.
Technology - The technology in both communities are very advanced as these texts are set in the future. There is genetic engineering in both communities.

2. Family structure
On both Tairs and The Giver Community, there are families that are not biological. On The Giver Community all the genes are genetically engineered and there is no concept of love. On Taris, there are some genetically engineered babies and some of natural birth.

3. Isolated communities
Taris is on an island in the middle on the Southern Ocean therefore it is surrounded by water. The Giver Community is surrounded by a desert. The people of Taris knew that they were on an island in the middle on the ocean whilst the people in the giver didn't know where they were or what was out beyond their community.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Isolated communities
"The Giver" and "Juno of Taris" are both set in isolated communities. These communities are similar as they both are selective about the people living in there, they both refer to other places as "The Outside" and they run their communities using their own resources. Though, The Community (in "The Giver"), is seemingly stricter than Taris, in terms of who is accepted into this isolated community.

2. Jobs/occupations
The occupations available in Taris and The Community are similar as they are targeted at ensuring survival within their respective community. However, in regards to choosing (or lack of choice) the occupations, The Elders choose occupations for citizens of The Community, while the learning stratums of Taris are offered an apprenticeship and have some (but limited) choice in their roles.

3. Control of citizens
The theme of control is used in "The Giver" and "Juno of Taris" alike. Both governments display control over its citizen's in both minor and major ways. Examples of control include implementing curfews and controlling education. One major difference between the two novels is the appearance of characters. Although both governments are strict about clothing and other features, The Elders of The Community allow them to keep their hair, unlike the Governance Companions of Taris. This is an evident example of "control" throughout "Juno of Taris".

# data[].attributes.body
1. Climate control
In both 'Juno of Taris' and 'The Giver'  their climate is controlled. They have certain temperatures which are constantly the same. In the Giver they demonstrate the perfect weather; no rain, no snow, no freezing cold weather or no stinking hot weather. It is always set at the 'perfect temperature'. On the contrary, 'Juno of Taris' does have some rain, the weather too is perfect and set.
2. Family Structure
The Family structure are similar for both 'The giver' and 'Juno of Taris'. The family's start of with people, these people are then assigned with kids. The difference though is that in 'The Giver' the heaviest child  is chosen, in 'Juno of Taris' their traits are chosen. In contrary, in 'Juno of Taris' they volunteer to have a kid and then get hand picked to do it. Whilst in 'The Giver' they have the eggs put into the women.
3.  Jobs/ Occupations
Jobs and occupations in 'The Giver'  are chosen through someones capabilities, this is so that the job is fit for them.The Elders have a massive impact as their the ones choosing their jobs.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Jobs/Occupations
In 'The Giver' the jobs are specifically chosen by the Elders for the individual. In 'Juno of Taris' they're offered an apprenticeship by a skilled or older worker of that field. They're encouraged by fellow members of their stratum to accept this position.

2. Meetings as a community
In both 'The Giver' and 'Juno of Taris' the community often engage in many meetings together. In 'Juno of Taris' they have meetings more frequently to discuss what's happening in Taris, while in 'The Giver' the meetings only occur on special occasions e.g Selection Ceremony. They also avoid sharing information about the problems in The Community at these meetings.

3. Set in The Future
'The Giver' and 'Juno of Taris' are both set in the future. In 'Juno of Taris' it is said to be set in the late 21st century, whereas 'The Giver's' time is not mentioned, but the advanced technology indicates that it's in a time more modern than our own. In both texts, their world's rose after a catastrophic event.

# data[].attributes.body
1. a rebellious protagonist
In both 'Juno of Taris' and 'The Giver' there is a rebellious protagonist who doesn't agree with one of the rules/ laws for their community. For example in Juno of Taris, Juno and others all agree not to shave their heads which is going against the Governance Companions. This also happens in The Giver as Jonas rebels against the Elders rules with by lying to them and breaking the curfews.
2. control of citizens
Control over the citizens are shown in both 'The Giver' and 'Juno of Taris' as all citizens have an over controlling government. Each dystopian story shows an over controlling government as in The Giver they have their jobs chosen for them and very strict curfews. Same goes with Juno of Taris having to shave their heads each week and learning in different learning stratums.
3. laws, rules, curfews
Laws, rules and curfews are very strict in both "Juno of Taris' and 'The Giver' as they have set time tables for each day and punishments if not obeyed.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Genetic engineering
Both the novel 'Juno of Taris' and the film 'The Giver' have a component of genetic engineering. In 'Juno of Taris' the citizens are selected to have a baby and when they are given permission they must choose the genes from people from the outside to have there baby, at the Gene Centre. They do this so the baby fits the perfect mould of the Tarisian baby. Similarly in 'The Giver' babies are kept at the Nurturing Centre where the babies have certain characteristics enhanced, so they better fit the mould of a perfect citizen of The Community. In The Community the lighter baby out of the two babies are sent to elsewhere, which is death. 'Juno of Taris' and 'The Giver' resemble closely in genetic engineering.

2. Dystopian genre
Dystopian genre is referred to a futuristic imagined world, that is bad and unpleasant. Both 'Juno of Taris' and 'The Giver' are a dystopian genre. They are both dystopian genres as freedom of speech and thought is restricted and citizen's individuality is restricted. In Juno of Taris citizens are required to wear the same clothes, have there heads shaved and also the citizens are not taught to read and write. Similarly, in The Giver citizens are also required to wear correct clothing, they receive no/very little education and certain words are bot allowed to be said.  The Giver and Juno of Taris closely resemble each other as they show characteristics of a dystopian genre.
3. Government/authority
Both 'The Giver' and 'Juno of Taris' have controlling government. In 'The Giver' the Elders control the community, however in 'Juno of Taris' the community is ran by the Governance Companions. The Elders from 'The Giver' and the Governance Companions in 'Juno of Taris' closely resemble each other as they are well trust by the citizens of the two communities and are thought to be guiding the communities in the correct manner. Both the Elders and the Governance Companions have secrets that they hide from the community, even though it is thought that they never lie. The Elders hide colour and memories of the past from the citizens of the community in 'The Giver,' likewise the Governance Companions hide the true history from the citizens of Taris. In the same manner 'Juno of Taris' and 'The Giver' both have controlling governments.

# data[].attributes.body
1. A Rebellious Protagonist
In Juno Of Taris, Juno and her group of friends rebel against the government and try and change  the rules around Taris as well as having people withdraw from them along the way. But in The Giver things a different it is only Jonas who can change how The Community and so he rebels against the Elders on his own to try and get everyone to see and fell all the memories he has received.

2. Transport and Technology
In Juno Of Taris, the mode of transport is walking or running they don't have bikes or anything like that but in The Giver they get bikes but if they choose they can walk but the main mode of transport are bikes.

# data[].attributes.body
1. A rebellious protagonist
-  On Taris the rebellious protagonist is Juno, as she asks questions about what has happened in the past and to why the rules of Tairs are the rules. On the other hand, In the giver Jonas is the rebellious protagonist as he is next in line to be the giver of memories.

2. Isolated communities
- Both 'Juno of Taris' and 'The Giver' are isolated communities as in the novel, Taris is isolated from the dome around Taris, and in the film 'the giver' the community is set on a remote island.

3. Dystopian Genre
- In both 'Juno of Taris' and 'The Giver' are advertised to be a utopia, but actually the government uses propaganda to make everyone think its a 'perfect world' but actually they are both dystopian.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Control of citizens
In both texts, 'Juno of Taris' and 'The Giver', the theme of control is shown quite promptly. We can see that in both texts, the Elders/Governance Companions have a lot of power over the people. They make the rules, they control the people's lives. On Taris however, the people have a bit more freedom in the sense that they get to choose what profession to follow. In 'The Giver', the people's jobs are chosen for them, whether they like it or not.
2. Genetic Engineering
On Taris, there is the idea of 'the perfect child', one that complies, comforms, behaves, doesn't speak against the laws and leaders... To make sure that this happens, there is a system where the parents of the child choose the traits of the baby. In 'The Giver', there they aren't exactly altering or enhancing the traits of the baby but instead, they have certain expectations. If the child is too light or isn't fit to stay, they are sent 'elsewhere'. If the child qualifies, they are put into a chosen family unit.
3. Laws, rules, curfews
Rules and curfews play a part in both texts. There are strict timetables set out for the citizen.  No one goes out after dark, there is recreation time where everyone can relax and do the accepted things to do.

# data[].attributes.body
- Climate Control
In the film The Giver and the novel Juno of Taris everything is alike. The weather is controlled by technology. They both have perfect weather. However it rains on Taris but never in the Community.
Another difference is when the Community had artificial plants, they plug in the tress.
Also in Taris they had artificial stars. In the same respect The Giver and Juno of Taris did have a lot in common.
- Dystopian Genre

Juno of Taris and the Giver are both dystopian genre.Its because there both very very controlled by the government

- Education
Education on Taris is opposite of The Giver.
Education on Taris was alike to The Giver because they both didn't tell the truth about anything.
They are under:
- the society is promoted as being the perfect 'utopia'
- the natural world is either damaged or distrusted
- freedom of speech and thought is restricted.
- propaganda is used to control citizens
- citizens are under constant surveillance.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Dystopian Genre
A dystopia is an imagined place or state in which everything is unpleasant or bad.Both 'The Giver' and 'Juno of Taris' show the dystopian genre as each illustrates some of the same aspects of dystopian fiction such as having a totalitarian and mysterious government who are very secretive and unquestionable. Juno of Taris and The Giver similarly, are promoted as a 'utopia' through securing words by the governance companions.
2. Laws, rules & curfew
Both 'The Giver' and 'Juno of Taris' have laws, rules and curfew, particularly those that control a citizens restriction of movement and strict time tables. In the novel Juno of Taris, citizens aren't allowed to do certain things such as grow their hair, leave the island and are forced to shave their hair fridays and go to meeting every wednesday. Similarly, the government in The Giver shows the same aspects during the film. Citizens aren't allowed outside of the 'walls' of the island and there are set times where they can do things. Both the Giver and Juno of Taris, demonstrate very similar values to do with rule, order and curfew.
3. Government/authority
Both societies in Juno of Taris and The Giver are ruled by a totalitarian government who are both very similar in the way the govern their society and have control over the citizens choices and restrict them from doing certain things. Examples:
The Giver:
- Government doesn't allow citizens to touch anyone outside of their family unit
- jobs are chosen for them
- need to take medication every morning

Juno of Taris:
- They have to marry someone from their learning stratum
- individuality is restricted
- only alowed to wear a standard set of clothes that are all the same
- Government promotes their society as a perfect utopia and use un-logical excuses to promote sameness and equality

# data[].attributes.body
1. Government Authorities
In both 'the Giver' and 'Juno of Taris' they have Government authorities controlling the citizens and enforcing rules. There are the same government authorities and they do not change - citizens don't vote for governments. In Juno of Taris there are bad governments who blackmail citizens, killing people who challenge the laws which is exactly like 'the Giver' who also has a very controlling and overbearing government who lies, invades your privacy and kills people who also try to challenge the laws.

2. Genetic Engineering
In 'Juno of Taris' and 'the giver' genetic engineering happens with the process making the children. No one questions the actions of how natural birth is not allowed. In the giver they enhance characteristics and choose which baby is healthier to keep and give it to the correct family. In juno of Taris characteristics are enhanced as well as choosing the parents with the perfect characteristics of a Taris citizen.

3. Education
Education is enforced in both 'Juno of Taris' and 'the giver' to try and maintain a functioning society, so they have some knowledge. Although, they are not taught about history, or literature as that leaves too many possibilities for rebellion and the past being brought up as a main topic. 'Juno of Taris' and 'the giver' are the same as they have a strict timetable they have to follow for school, doing brief life skills.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Genetic Engineering
In the novel 'Juno of Taris' genetic engineering is used, this is the same in the film 'The Giver'. The novel 'Juno of Taris' uses genetic engineering to keep a good population rate. When one citizen dies, a chosen couple is able to produce a baby from the outside world. If you are a scientist you are aloud to reproduce the natural way although this isn't very common. This is similar to how genetic engineering is used in the film 'The Giver'. In the film 'The Giver genetic engineering is shown similarly on Taris, nurturers make different characteristics stand out to create a perfect citizen, this happens in the nurturing centre while on taris this occurs in the gene centre.

2. A Rebellious Protagonist
In both the film the 'The Giver' and the novel 'Juno of Taris' there is a rebellious figure whom rebels against the government/authority. In 'The Giver' the rebellious character is the main character, this is the same in the novel 'Juno of Taris' . The  main character in the novel 'Juno of Taris' is Juno she is  also one of the rebellious figures in the novel. While in 'The Giver' there is only one character that is a rebel, in Taris there are multiple major and minor characters that act as rebellious protagonists.

3. Isolated Communities
'The Giver' and 'Juno of Taris' are both set in an isolated community. 'The Giver' is set on a remote island that is separated from the rest of the world which has been damaged by 'the ruin'. 'Juno of Taris' is also set on a remote island however it has a protective dome around the outside to prevent citizens from escaping. On Taris ships were sent to the island containing goods however this stopped years ago as there was not enough money to keep funding the Taris project.
