Brave New World By Aldous Huxley

When readers read Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, they are taken the World State, a dystopian society where the citizens are attracted to material goods, immediate happiness, and drugs that distract themselves from reality. Do Readers begin to wonder if the society we live in today become a dystopian society? While comparing societies, we begin to realize that our society is almost identical to the World State. Our societies are very similar, but we will never become a dystopian society like the World State, for we are not controlled by material goods, immediate happiness and drugs, we are controlled by our emotions.

Huxley’s Brave New World centers around a society far from modern day. In this warped

In the world of sex, drugs, and baby cloning you are going to be in many situations where you feel like the world we live in should be different. In the story Brave New World, they had sex with multiple partners along with a very bad use of drugs.

“And that," put in the Director sententiously, "that is the secret of happiness and virtue — liking what you 've got to do. All conditioning aims at that: making people like their unescapable social destiny.”

In Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, people in the book show lack of emotion,feelings,interest or concern especially regarding matters of general importance or appeal wishing we had lack of apathy, my prediction is that people will no longer have strong emotions about anything important.They will become apathetic about most issues.We are convinced that one individual doesn’t matter. We can’t really make a difference in anything we believe in. That’s one of the reasons why people have started to lose interest in many aspects of their lives because they can’t do anything to change that. However,this only applies to a certain part of the population. To be honest in my opinion I personally think most of our generation thanks to social media

Aldous Huxley’s book, Brave New World, is a futuristic dystopian novel based upon science and technology. The society created in the work produces humans with specific qualities to make sure that everyone fits into the system. The overall happiness of the people is favored above the rights of the individual. “Universal happiness keeps the wheels steadily turning; truth and beauty can’t. And of course whenever the masses seized political power, then it was happiness rather than truth and beauty that mattered” (Huxley, 228). The women’s rights movement seeks the advancement of socialism and the expense of individual rights, just as the “Brave New World” described in Huxley 's book sacrifices the rights of man for the contentment of society.

Imagine living in a society where every single person acts and behaves the same. Do you think it’s possible? In the novel Brave New World, Aldous Huxley tells of a society where everyone is the same but, compared to today’s society, everything is different. Huxley tells of a world where everything that happens or takes place is because of one’s own desire and nothing more. The hero in the novel, a “savage” named John, is Huxley’s main focal point. It is through his eyes and mind that the reader sees what’s going on. Now when I read this novel, I began to think, “Could this perfect, conformed world actually exist”?

First able, brave new world is written by Aldous Huxley concentrates on the development of mankind in a future society. He shows a society which is supposed to be a perfect one. The structure of brave new world contains one motto that is community, identity, and stability which are the pillars of this society. Each member have complete control of the development of the society. This control does not begin with a birth of the general population, everybody gets his place in the general public before he or she is born. Huxley does not speak of the birth of human beings, he calls it transferring, because people are raised in bottles. They need many things to protect the society and keep motto alive

In order to properly read and understand Brave New World one must realize that Huxley was constructing a less serious ideal for perfection rather than trying to make

Regardless of how free one is to choose, society still has the ultimate control over how happiness is obtained. Brave New World by Aldous Huxley is the story of man from a Utopian world where consumerism is encouraged and aging does not exist. He visits the old world that is diseased and full of poverty and suffering. He brings back a savage from this world and the philosophy of life and happiness is questioned and discussed. In Brave New World, the social and political influence leaves the protagonists in a constant pursuit of happiness.

“Aldous Huxley’s ‘Brave New World’ is largely about what we got – a consumerist post God happy land …” This quote from Kyle Smith in his article about Brave New World is an example on how the world is becoming the dystopia that Aldous Huxley created in Brave New World. In Brave New World people are taken away from reality by a drug called soma, the belief in Henry Ford as a God instead of a person, the technological control from birth that changes what a person wants to something that the government wants the citizen to know, the fear or an all powering state, and the alienation of people forced into a society they don’t want to be in or are not wanted in.

In today’s world, People have been accustomed to love freedom, liberty, and the ability to choose. However, authors have been writing about a dystopian world where no one … Political and social repression will always fail, leading to the people’s desire for freedom and liberty. Once the masses know about freedom, they will fight for it their last breath. This is shown by Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World and the Soviet Union’s repressive regime on Poland.

Throughout history, regimes around the world have orchestrated their own social system, influenced by political and economic ideologies. Humans have been victims of corrupt government systems that set a large gap between two distinct social classes: The Proletariat and Bourgeoisie. This system is mostly seen in places where one or many have an excessive amount of power (tyranny). Whether it’s an overpowered ruler who puts himself far beyond everyone else in terms of social class, or a society where the lower class is completely irrelevant to the rich, this has been prevalent throughout the course of humanity. One classic novel that exhibits the ideas and consequences of Marxism within a society is Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. In Brave New World, Huxley was able to analyze the book through a Marxist lens where there is a major difference in social classes, desire for power, and ideological perspectives within the Bourgeoise and Proletariat.

In Aldous Huxley’s dystopian novel Brave New World, (titled after Miranda’s line in Shakespeare’s play, The Tempest) (Frey 1) everyone works together to keep the Fordian society, as a whole, together, no matter what the cost. Each society member makes many individual sacrifices and this allows them to live a seemingly happy life. The protagonist of the novel, later introduced as John the Savage, played the devil’s advocate to the people of London, trying to help them achieve a truly healthy life. John developed his emotions by reading Shakespeare. Because of this, he could not comprehend the World State and caused much chaos while there.

Brave New World was written in 1931 and published in 1932. Since then, thousands of copies have been sold. This novel has also been banned in many countries. This story is extremely controversial, but this is what makes it so good. It was rated number fifty-two out of one hundred most banned books from 1990-2001. Brave New World has made an impact on society by warning people of the possible outcomes of technological advances mixed with government control. This novel was inspired by H. G. Wells. Aldous Huxley made it a point to write this dystopian story to share the terrifying possibilities that the future could hold if we aren’t careful.
