Abstract
The goal of this analysis is to study the phenomena of the construction of national identity in the context of cultural representation, antagonization and demonization through the framework of Hollywood spy-movies and movies focused on the matters of mass surveillance and security. For this analysis, two movies based on real events (Snowden, Bridge of Spies) and two fictional movies were used in order to depict certain elements that are crucial in the portrayal of collective identity. Within this context the emphasis is placed on Benedict Anderson's concept of "imagined communities" along with other associated concepts of numerous other authors which were used in this analysis. Through the context of these cultural processes and phenomena the movie is interpreted as an "ideological machine" which enforces, promotes and perpetuates collective perception and values of a certain community, in this case, the United States of America.
Abstract (croatian)
Cilj ove analize jest proučiti fenomen konstrukcije nacionalnog identiteta u kontekstu kulturne reprezentacije, antagonizacije, te demonizacije kroz okvir Hollywoodskih špijunskih filmova, te filmova fokusiranih na pitanja masivnog nadziranja i sigurnosti. Za ovu analizu su korištena dva filma temeljena na istinitim događajima (Snowden, Bridge of Spies), te dva fiktivna filma (Enemy of the State,The Pelican Brief) u svrhu oslikavanja određenih elemenata koji su ključni u prikazivanju i analizi kolektivnog identiteta. Unutar tog okvira se stavlja naglasak na koncept "zamišljenih zajednica" Benedicta Andersona, te na povezane koncepte mnogobrojnih drugih autora koji su korišteni unutar ove analize. Kroz kontekst ovih kulturnih procesa i fenomena se film postavlja kao svojevrsni "ideološki stroj" koji podupire, primjenjuje, te ovjekovječuje kolektivnu percepciju i vrijednosti određene zajednice, u ovom slučaju, Sjedinjenih Američkih Država.
