Those who would be willing to lead a type of resistance are unable to find and communicate with one another. In Chapter 1, the Handmaids have to mouth their names because they can't speak overtly; this sets the tone for the rest of the novel.

The 'eyes' are what Michel Foucault calls the 'panopticon' ['pan' - all; opt - 'see']. Three guards can watch 300 prisoners because of the design of the prison. Prisoners are unaware if the guard is watching them or someone else; its NOT THE WATCHING, but the fear of being watched that controls behavior.]]> 2021-02-23 18:43:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jjeffries13/aye92jzld4ti4emx/wish/1233100929 jjeffries13 https://padlet.com/jjeffries13/aye92jzld4ti4emx/wish/1233116003 2021-02-23 18:46:37 UTC https://padlet.com/jjeffries13/aye92jzld4ti4emx/wish/1233116003 Create opportunities for subjects to 'buy in' to the tyranny jjeffries13 https://padlet.com/jjeffries13/aye92jzld4ti4emx/wish/1233144905 Young men are attracted to Gilead because there is a structure for promotion.
