This study, based on the theory of social construction of reality by Information sociologist Peter L. Berger and Thomas Luckmann, a game called Love Foot, written by Memet Baydur in 1992, aims to explore the social reality in which the dominant powers are hegemonic and the individuals who incorporate the social reality in the context of the outstanding to the reality they produce. In this sense, the outsourcing of individuals who internalized the political, economic and cultural realities that the 12th September 1980 Military Conduct under pressure and violence established to themselves and to society will be dealt with in the direction of destroying the reality ground by targeting the collective memory of the dominant power, which is hegemony over social reality. In addition, the change of the individual’s objective realities and norms in the process of building consistent essence through the ideological and pressure instruments of September 12 will be assessed along with Michel Foucault’s concept of disciplinary power.

This study analyses Sevgi Ayakları, a 1992 play written by Memet Baydur, within the framework of individual alienation and the internalization of social reality prevailed upon by dominant powers. The analysis also draws from sociologists Peter L. Berger and Thomas Luckmann’s theory of social construction of reality. In this regard, the fact that individuals, who have internalized cultural, economic and political realities constructed by the September 12th, 1980 coup d’état through oppression and violence, have become self-alienated from the society is dealt with by considering the breakdown of reality by the dominant powers reigning over social reality, aiming at collective memory. Furthermore, the 1980 coup’s altering individuals’ subjective realities and norms while creating docile subjects through ideological and oppression apparatus is evaluated using Michel Foucault’s concept of “disciplinary power“.
