Melville's White-Jacket is the novel about the life of a man-of-war where the evils from the oppressive and hierarchical militaristic culture are practiced. In this novel, Melville formulates the destructive results of the systematic social injustices evoked by the militarism which the martial law protects, and indicates that such results reached not only the lower class(sailors) but the quarter-deck officers alike. Under the cruel martial law, members of upper class grow up as the sadistic and inhuman kind of martial man. For Melville the great cause of war is just a white lie for American imperialism.
In 1842, Melville shipped as a common sailor on board the USS United States and in 1850 published White-Jacket. During the military service he had experienced lots of vices from the unequal relationship between the upper class and the lower class. For him this kind of systemized unequal condition is caused by the militaristic culture guaranteed by the 19th century American imperialistic expansionism and racist ideology. In this novel Melville examines both the ideal of democracy expressed in Declaration of Independence of America as well as its corrupt shipboard form, with special attention given to the practice of flogging, a punishment Melville viewed not only with a reformer's skepticism but also a genuine visceral horror. Here Melville bitterly attacks the brutal practices as arbitrary violations of the natural rights of man. Reformist narrative in White-Jacket embodies Melville's critique of the strict patriarchical social system, which produced all kinds of evil on board, including such inhuman treatment as flogging. But by exposing the narrator White-Jacket's rhetoric of narcissistic self-deception and elitism, Melville also parodies the contemporary popular reformistic propaganda. In this novel, the people, a formal appellation applied to sailors by officers, appear as the sacrifice to the dominant disciplinary powers, but in them including the narrator White-Jacket, Melville seeks the potential of regaining of democratic sympathy with the fellow-mates and of the self-dignity as man.
