Comparsion Of The Two Worlds In Harry Potter

On first glance the two worlds presented to us in the Harry Potter books appear to be vastly different. However, it may be argued that upon closer inspection we can see that the worlds can be seen to be very similar and that where they differ is purely in relation to the presentation of the worlds. What I mean by this is that the wizarding world is very similar to the muggle world if we are to look at the structure of the societies of the two worlds. For example, both worlds have a government (State and The Ministry of Magic), an education system (School and Hogwarts), an economic system (Bank and Gringotts), transport system (Bus, Car, Train, Airplane and Brooms, Floo System), prison system (Prison and Azkaban), work force, even different classes. Where they differ however is in relation to the details
In both worlds there is an existence of an institution where money can be lodged and saved. However, in the wizarding world Gringotts is run by goblins. This is in contrast to a bank being run by and operated by humans. Another example of how the two worlds are similar yet different is if we are to look at the idea of different classes. It is clear that there are rich and poor in both the wizarding world and also the muggle world. However, while one may be rich in the muggle world it may be down to inheritance but also down to hard work. In contrast however, in the wizarding world wealth only appears to stem from inheritance and those that are wealthy appear to be those that are pure-blood. We only have to compare the Malfoy family to that of the Weasley family where we can see Arthur Weasley working hard to support his family yet the still seem to struggle. This is in contrast to the Malfoys where we see Lucius Malfoy living in a rich aristocratic world where his only job appears to be as a death eater to Lord
