Frederic S: The object of Apocalypse World for its players is to make something of their world. The relationship of the MC with this goal is a little ambiguous (but perfectly functional), because the MC has to be both opposition and referee in turn. Thus, "find out what the characters make of their world," with the explicit inclusion of the idea that their world will push back against them.
The rules of Apocalypse World are designed to help the MC switch effortlessly and appropriately between opposition and referee, instant by instant, judgment call by judgment call.
