What is the name of the Inspector in an Inspector calls?

in my opinion, the inspector is JB Priestley himself because if you look outside the box(plot,storyline) it really has an inner message. this is why the inspector knows the future and the character's conscience because he controls the characters.-sorry, i talked a lot t's just we did a whole essay about this thing!-happy to help :)Inspector Goole -- who in fact is not an inspector -- is a strange character and we never really find out who he is. The name Goole is similar sounding to ghoul which then relates to ghost, which leaves you thinking that maybe he isnon human. But the questions Inspector Goole asks, you get the feeling he already knows the answer to them all. Each question he asks, it is as if he is informing them of their incorrect actions and he is almost like the conscience they should have but it has been blocked out, and it is now coming back to haunt them all.

Who is the inspector in inspector calls?

Inspector Goole is a strange character. The actual character is made out to be like a ghost. He seems to be all-knowing and his name can be broken down to prove this. Inspecter ; Spectre. Goole ; Ghoul. The Inspector is used by J.B. Priestly to express his socialist views on society. The inspector is made out to be very mysterious. J.B. Priestly's knowlege of the character's "future" enables him to make the capitalist Birlings seem wrong and arrogant by making them certain that things like the war will not happen. The inspector, however, representing socialism is making out that they will definatly happen. This makes socialism seem to be "the truth". The inspector also seems to give them a second chance, giving the point that socialism forgives whereas capitalism does not(Mr. Birling firing Eva Smith). He gives them this second chance by fore warning them of the real inspector and allowing them to feel remorse, rather than simply being questioned about her suicide.
