Struggle for Power - Currently the Capitol has power - President Snow.

- Katniss becomes a rival for powerr - people look up to her for guidance, becomes a threat because Snow sees her as one.

'Hope, it is the thing stronger than fear. A little hope is effective, a lot of hope is dangerous'. 

Fear - The people are afraid of rebelling because the last time they tried they failed and they were punished with the Hunger Games.

Little Hope - Becoming a victor

Dangerous Hope -  That the districts deserve to be treated better.

Power of Propaganda - Information, especially of a based or misleading nature, used to promote a political cause or POV.
