Abstract

The British government decision to fight Gennan in the battle of World War I had affected many lives. The impact not only felt by the citizens' life in the colonised country but also the citizens in the coloniser country. Agree or disagree, the British government's decision has to be supported by its imperialist states, one of it is Scotland. The Scottish government made some policies due to the war needs. One of the polices is DORA (Defence of the Realm Act) which gives the government powers to take over property, apply censorship, control labour and commandeer economic resources to support the war. The working class is the one who has to get the biggest effect of this policy. Their powers are exploited but their right is not concerned. In other word, they are oppressed. Bill Bryden's Willie Rough is the story about a man, named Willie that has a particular point of view about his country's condition, especially the working class. His idolatry to a labour activist, named John McLean motivates him to follow his idol's action, striving better live for the working class. His disappointment on the government, capitalism, and labour's condition harden his spirit to revolt.
