metaphor for settler societies

fredfitch says:

My own feeling about the first novel is that it’s a metaphor for settler societies–Israel, certain African nations, Roman Britain–that essentially create the monsters they fight, which makes them strong, but also blinds them to the fact that it’s their own aggression and desire for control that is making their new world reject them.

это про Deathworld by Harry Harrison. вот и я так думаю.
