The eco-feminists believe that their suffering from patriarchal oppression is not different from man’s exploitation of nature. Besides, man's wrong practices even in agricultural matters are exhausting the natural resources of the lands, and they badly affect the ecological diversity and the wellbeing of the humans and non-humans alike. Contemporary feminist writers treat this international crisis as a priority and start to devote their writings to address ecological issues. The smoke that emits from the factories, the pollution caused by the industrial projects, the excessive use of green gas result in the increase of global warming and have catastrophic effects on the ecosphere of the planet. The advancement in technology increases the compet ition among world powers and economic systems to develop their industrial enterprises. It sheds light on the role of propaganda and intelligence agencies in the novel and its relation to the governments' policies to misguide the public about the terrorist threats to world powers, prior to the 2003 invasion of Iraq.Ĭlimate change, together with terrorism, economic depressions, and mass-destructive weaponry, is a source of international phobia for many people. This study is a political reading of Rowling's Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. For instance, the American and British readers have been unable to resist identification with the events which mirror the international campaign on terrorism. It is possible to draw political parallels with contemporary issues. Still, the texts are still open for other readings. The critics and readers found connections between the events of the early parts of the novel and the historical havoc in world politics, like Hitler and World War II, a thing which Rowling attested in many of her interviews. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings and many other fantasies, Rowling's Harry Potter is rich with allegorical implications that reflect the political anxiety of the era in which it was written.
