George Orwell 1984 Ministry Of Love
1,357 wordsSince the onset of the United States, Americans have always viewed the future in two ways; one, as the perfect society with a perfect government, or two, as a communistic hell where free will no longer exists and no one is happy. The novel 1984 by George Orwell is a combination of both theories. On the "bad" side, a communist state exists which is enforced with surveillance technology and loyal patriots. On the "good" side, however, everyone in the society who was born after the hostile takeover...

Probably the most important thing to remember
while reading 1984 is that Orwell never intended
the book to be a prediction of the future. It was
more or less a satire of political fiction,
however, I believe Orwell was on the right track
concerning future possibilities of a New World
Order, or total government control. An interesting
quotation from the book is from the "thought
police" when they say "If you want a picture of
the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human

Mind control is more common than many people
realize. A prime example is television. Most
people will not admit that commercials and
television shows influence them, but of course
they do. If it were not influential, companies

products. People buy cars, peanut butter, and soda

Political Views in George Orwell s 1984 The main
theme of Nineteen Eighty-Four concerns the
restrictions imposed on individual freedom by a
totalitarian regime. George Orwell shows how such
a system can impose its will on the people through
manipulation of the press, the elimination of
democracy, constant supervision (courtesy of the
Telescreens) and more. Orwell also shows how the
state has more subtle methods for imposing its
authority, such as the manipulation of language
