This bachelor's thesis examines how The Hunger Games trilogy can be interpreted as an example of achieving justice through participatory processes. The aim is to analyze, from a process theological perspective, how the protagonist Katniss Everdeen actively contributes to the liberating process through her actions. The analysis utilizes Catherine Keller's and Sallie McFague's process theological perspective. Keller and McFague focus on how destructive power relationships damage human relationships and how it is possible to be part of breaking through these destructive power relationships by participating in the process to achieve justice and heal human relationships. The thesis has used an abductive method along with a content-oriented ideational analysis. The thesis contributes with a discussion of theological insights from the analyses. This includes examining the role of self-awareness in recognizing the influence of destructive power relationships and how opposing the destructive power can be part of the process of pursuing justice.
