1984 Analysis
George Orwell's 1984 cautions against the rise of the totalitarian regime and what it could comprise of if it were to become a real-world problem. Oceania is a power ridden distopian society with no hope of returning to a democratic world similar to the one that we live in now. Winston Smith's life comprises of very little except the scarcity of light-heartedness, and his desolate surroundings. (QUOTE) Winston is only a sample of the people of Oceania, and the drippings of a long destroyed society. Winston is constantly under the scrutiny of the Party, and their symbol of 'Big Brother'. He has no sense of personal identity, nor any sense of judgement. Any emotions, be it love or like, are abolished and redirected towards the Party. It is expected that all citizens have complete submission to Big Brother and have an undeniable obedience towards the Inner Party. Orwell represents what could be the outcome of a totalitarian regime ever becoming a actuality.
Each of the Party's subjects have lost their personal identity, their individuality is lost to the governing power. Whilst implementing several rules to stop people from expressing their self, citizens are forced to comply unless they have a deep yearning for punishment and correction. Through telescreens, the thought police, and the citizens ready to declare leery behaviour, the Party has surrounded itself with a security layer, enough so to furthermore control their people's actions and thoughts. (QUOTE) People may have no personal opinions, nor may they have the right to decide on religion, dress, or political views. Each citizen lacks the strength to overthrow the Party singularly, and grouping together in an attempt to may be catastrophic with the Party having many forms of detection. Humanity may have fallen too deep into an abyss to struggle back into their former state. (QUOTE)
The Proletarians, or Proles as they are otherwise known, are the only truly free people within Oceania. Humans pride
