We may not live in a fully dystopian society, but we certainly do rely on tests to “belong” to categories or groups of people. Though we have similar tests in place, a portion of our society also embraces self-identity and ethnicity. Our society often accepts that there are different groups of people and tries to work collaboratively throughout while others disagree. Just like Roth’s novels, this is what leads to war and destruction. Those who are unaccepting and power hungry are also those who cause turmoil and war. If the world was in full agreement of total equality, our society might not have some of the dystopian elements that Roth creates in the Divergent
