BNW vs 1984

1984 Vs. Brave New World Imagine a world in which people are produced in factories, a world lost of all freedom and individuality, a world where people are exiled or “disappear” for breaking the mold.

Although these novels are of fictional worlds, control of the future may be subtly evolving and becoming far worse than Huxley or Orwell …

…cures ten gloomy sentiments” (Huxley 89). Throughout 1984 and Brave New World, each method of control is intended to keep the individual from questioning their individuality.

Yet, as long as humans continue to desire to acquire knowledge, this will never be allowed to happen. For it is upon the strengths of the individuals that our entire society is built.
