Questions should be submitted in hard-copy format, typewritten, double spaced. 1. Explain the significance of the title to the main characters. 2. How are the immigrant families treated in La Haine? 3. Discuss the role of the police in this film. 4. How is this cultural misunderstanding expressed in La Haine? Issues of citizenship, immigration, migration and ‘foreignness’ are often imbued with the socio-cultural constructions of ‘good’ and ‘evil’ by a particular society.

Nationalism is generally considered to be a political ideology that the notion of a nation built by and shared by people having a common language, race, ethnicity, etc. Another concept of nationalism is to have common “glories in the past, to have a common will in the present, to have performed great deeds together, to wish to perform still more …” Considering either or both of these ideologies of what nationalism is, how do the concepts shape or not shape the cultural capital of the three protagonists in La Haine?
