Totalitarianism is the most detrimental regime a society can have as it stops citizens
from having freedom, personal identity and individualism, which eventually leads to the
alienation of individuals and the destruction of one’s mind and self. Different events in
history have shown how power always leads to corruption and it consequently results in the
enslavement of the population, concepts which are present in George Orwell’s novel 1984.
The aim of this project consists in providing an account of the socio-political control
which the individuals in charge of social and political power exert over the population and
the concept of alienation through George Orwell’s literary work 1984. In addition, this
project will reflect and provide a critical perspective regarding the issues that appear in the
novel and also a comparison with contemporary events.
The description and analysis of the dystopian society in 1984 has the goal of providing an
account of the concept of alienation and how the different methods used in the novel
contribute to the establishment of a totalitarian society where the citizens are not aware of
their actual situation due to indoctrination and alienation.
The novel 1984 exposed some themes and ideas as predictions on how society would
become in the future. This project concludeS that most of his ideas were not far from reality
and that the mechanisms exposed in the novel are actually present in our current society to a
certain extent. [-]
