This paper analyses the novel "1984" by George Orwell and compares how present working conditions through modern technology
could easily parallel the predictions in the book. From the paper: Nineteen eighty-four is a tale of future
society, a society in which independent thinking is a crime punishable by death. A tale of a society that is populated with mindless, loveless, unfeeling followers of nothing. This is also a nation whose leaders are self serving and are not concerned with the common good by which all of society will benefit. A governing force known as "The Party" rules society. At the head of this government is a fictional figure known as Big Brother, whom all citizens must love and respect. The idealism of blind loyalty was embodied in this symbol. It was the center of control. In this society,
privacy and freedom do not exist. The Party does not need to justify its arrogant ways because it holds all of the power.
