Reflection of Die Welle

Die Welle is a german movie which is directed and written by Dennes Gansel and puslihed in 2008. The movie shows that according to a group of students in present-day Germany management autocracy of the Hitler would not even mentioned and a teacher is responsible for finishing weekly project whose subject is comparing and contrasting autoracy and anarchy.This teacher, Rainer Wenger (Jürgen Vogel), firstly wants to enter a weekly anarchy course, but he has to give the autocracy lecture. The teacher prefers an extraordinary style to teach the course to his students, which aims to process them in a different way. Then they begin to become a social group. Firstly, the students adopt acting as a group and as a whole rather than as an individual. Students adopt this bevahiour excessively due to the joy of belonging to a group so they begin to change into a different formation. For example, everyone wears white shirts, the band has a logo. Also, the most important indicator of the group is that they even find a special greeting among themselves.

The group is called The Wave which is the most important thing for these students because these students are in puberty period. Their hormone imbalance and interparental conflicts cause to depend on the group in terms of integrity, loyalty and exclusive reactions across the others. According to Erikson’s Pychosocial Teory to achieve a healty personality, an individual must succesfully resolve a crisis at each of the eight stages of development. 5th stage is releated to these students because this stage contains 12 to 18 ages and explains identity versus role confusion. He argued that in order to arrive at a mature sexual and occupational identity, every adolescent must examine his identity and the roles he must occupy. He must achieve an integrated sense of self, of what he wants to do and be, and of his appropriate sexual role. The risk is that the adolescent will suffer from

    Psychosocial identity theory is based on how an individual’s identity is shaped by their own development and experiences combined with their social surroundings. Phoenix refers to E. Erikson (Phoenix, 2002), who wrote about eight stages of development whereby an individual’s identity is built over their lifetime. He suggests that most of the time we are unaware of this and is only when something in our life goes wrong or changes that we become more aware of whom we are and therefore what our identity is. This seems to be why Erikson focuses mainly on adolescence, as this is when people tend to explore different possible paths that lead to certain friendships and life choices, he describes this stage as ‘psychosocial moratorium’ that will eventually lead us to shape who we are as adults. Erikson refers to this achievement as ego identity (Phoenix, 2002), where an individual feels comfortable with whom they are. As with anything or anyone in a stage of development, it is not always a smooth transition from one stage to another and the individual can sometimes be delayed or stuck on one stage; in reference to identity Erikson describes this as an identity crisis.

    During the adolescence age, identity is very easy to change by your parents or friends. Their linguistic and mental behavior mind influences a teenager’s identity.For example, article “A Teen’s Friends Are a Powerful Influence” by Valerie Ulene, the author portrays that friends exert over one another as teenager’s influence is clearly powerful and far too often, undesirable by using an example, “more likely to indulge in these behaviors themselves. Aggressive, illegal or self-injurious behaviors also have a tendency to cluster among friend groups, as do concerns about body image and eating”(4).
