McCarthyism: The Age of Anxiety

Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest is an allegory with symbolic characters. These characters enter combat that is symbolic of the conflict in America—between the “establishment” and the “anti-establishment.”

“Establishment” “…term for a traditional conservative ruling class and its institutions. In this context the term may also refer to that which is mainstream.” (wikipedia.com) “The Man” is another term for this concept.

“Anti-Establishment” “[An entity that] goes against the conventional social, political, and economic principles of a society.” (wikipedia.com) “Counterculture” is another term that applies here.
