From the Paper:

"Winston Smith, the hero of 1984, may be considered as a reflection of the novel's author, George Orwell. 1984 takes place in a totalitarian state known as Oceania, whose citizens are completely subjugated by the dominating political party. In order to keep all citizens perfectly in control, the "Inner Party" utilizes such repressive devices as twoway telescreens, Thought Police and signs warning that "Big Brother Is Watching You." Winston Smith, the protagonist of the novel, works at the Ministry of Truth. Smith's job is to continually rewrite the news and political propaganda so that it alters the past according to the Party's wishes. In the course of the novel, Winston Smith rebels against the system. However, in the end, he is violently re-educated and is thus made into a willing, mindless and submissive servant of the state."
