Paper Summary:

This paper shows that despite certain elements in American society such as fear, technology and 'double think' which remind us of the themes in George Orwell's "1984", we are still far from the kind of society which was depicted in the novel.

From the Paper:

"Anti-nationalism is essential for a revolution to exist. Every revolution imaginable has been manifested as a result of un-favorable opinions of the government that ruled them. Although 35% would be a massive loss of life it would not be enough for most nations to lose grip on their citizens; much to the contrary citizens would most likely look to their nations to provide aide, and sympathized nations would be eager to provide. Disasters and war have proved to provide an increase of nationalism not a decrease; World War I, World War II, and the 9-11 terror attacks are many such examples."
