Much of Romeo and Juliet involves the lovers’ struggles against public and social institutions that either explicitly or implicitly oppose the existence of their love. Such structures range from the concrete to the abstract: families and the placement of familial power in the father; law and the desire for public order; religion; and the social importance placed on masculine honor. These institutions often come into conflict with each other. The importance of honor, for example, time and again results in brawls that disturb the public peace.
for example in today's society we are free but not really because you may want to be in a relationship but you cant because of religion family friends etc.and just like in the story they cant because of family.
patriotic songs are used to show patriotism. i.e the love for one's country while political songs are used to criticize or talk more about a political side
