Adolf Hitler once said, “The best way to take control over a people and control them utterly is to take a little of their freedom at a time…until past the point at which these changes cannot be reversed.” The motif of governmental control manipulates the individuals in Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. Society within Brave New World is conditioned to follow specific guidelines and to possess the same beliefs. The bureaucracy dominates the population of the New World socially, mentally, and physically. The motif of executive authority and domination assists in establishing characters, mood and atmosphere, and the additional theme of using technology to manipulate characters.

In the novel, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, Huxley includes allusion, ethos, and pathos to mock the wrongdoings of the people which causes physical and mental destruction in the society as a whole.

During the 1930s, the times of World War II and the Great Depression, Aldous Huxley wrote Brave New World. There were several issues going on in Huxley’s time that are still present in today's world . Huxley features some of these problems in his book, Brave New World. These problems include drug or medicine usage, women and gender inequality, and traditional marriage/homosexuality. Since this book was written during the times of the Great Depression and World War II, these factors also contributed to some of these issues. Since World War II and the Great Depression are over, these do not affect the problems today. Although some of these problems are still a problem in today's world and society, they are not as much of a problem as they were during Huxley's time.

Bernard, Lenina, and Linda all have unique characteristics that set them apart from the regular citizens of the World State Society. However, all three of them have unknowingly fallen into the conformities of the state’s maladaptive rules, preferably choosing to emanate the state’s values that do not fit their own characteristics. The World State’s guidelines and regulations pull all the citizens of the World State, including Bernard, Lenina, and Linda, into one lifestyle of living through a domino effect of conformity: the more people that conform, the more harder it is to resist the urge to conform with them.

The futuristic dystopian novel “Brave New World” by Aldous Huxley is about a government and how they control the citizens using conditioning, class structure, and the use of the drug soma. Conditioning plays a big role because it helps teach children what their role in society is. It constantly teaches the children what is right and wrong whether they are awake or sleeping. Class structure also plays a role in how they control the citizens and how they live their life. Some classes are more oppressed than others, like the Epsilons and Deltas who are used for manual labor because they have little to no intelligence. To add, the governments use soma to control the citizens because it increases serotonin in the brain and it helps escape from reality.

Huxley managed to evoke rethinking in social conditioning studies, provide original criticism towards the changing political environment with the emergence of the USSR, and adequately defend his domestic values from anti-traditionalists determined to abolish all known establishments.

In a Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley, the world state conditions babies to the environment and job they will have by caste. So if you're a Delta, the state conditions you to work in factories and to hate reading and nature. They condition you to like your work and your environment. Huxley gives us a new view of conditioning not by family, school, or friends. But instead by the government. In the story, there is a social predestination room that determines what job you will work in society. Huxley is showing predestination not on a supernatural level but on a political level. But in today's world, we are conditioned through other ways and have more freedom compared to the citizens in the world state.

While showing the students the budding embryos the Director is explaining some of the processes they use on the buds. Walking around the students notice “the saline solution poured in” (10). Adding the alcohol substance into the buds’ tubes gives them less intelligence, however Bernard’s tube had too much alcohol added in. As Lenina and Fanny are talking about how Lenina needs someone other than Henry foster, she brings up Bernard Marx. Fanny responds with, “They say somebody made a mistake and put alcohol into his blood-surrogate. That’s why he’s so stunted” (46). Bernard may be short for the average Alpha-Plus, but the alcohol in his blood surrogate didn’t make him any less of a genius; it just made him feel differently than the normal people. Most babies are born to be good at socializing and having a high confidence, but Bernard is anxious, has a very low self-confidence, and would rather be alone than in a crowd. These characteristics of himself is what makes others stay away from
