From the Paper
"There are many disturbing parallels between life in Aldous Huxley's classic novel, Brave New World, and life in our contemporary world, for Huxley's fictional world and our modern world share many social, political, economic, psychological, and totalitarian characteristics. These parallels have become more obvious and frightening in recent years as conservative politicians at every level of the federal government have allied themselves with powerful corporations, and as the news we rely upon to understand our world and make decisions is being increasingly controlled by corporate entertainment conglomerates."

Abstract
This paper examines modern cloning technology in light of the trepidation to this process as presented in the novel "Brave New World." The paper compares Aldous Huxley's image of cloning in "Brave New World" to the controversies this process inspires today. The paper contends that although today's cloning does not hold the place in society that it did in Huxley's work, the process must still be monitored and controlled. Also described are the various types of cloning and the benefits cloning can offer humanity.

From the Paper
" While there are different types of cloning, cloning itself is creating an identical copy of something. DNA cloning for instance is a common practice in biological labs since the 1970s and involves "the transfer of a DNA fragment of interest from one organism to a self-replicating genetic element such as a bacterial plasmid" (Human Genome Project 2006). Other types of cloning involve creating entirely new organisms and this is known as reproductive cloning as it "generates an animal that has the same exact DNA as another" (Human Genome Project 2006). Cloning is a broad term that comes to mean some kind of reproduction asexually."

Abstract
In this article, the writer describes that Aldous Huxley's novel, 'Brave New World', is a futuristic story of an Earth where people do not age, and do not reproduce, but where they also suppress their feelings by taking drugs, and do not 'experience' life as we understand it. The writer concentrates on the character of John the Savage that is one of the last characters that 'Brave New World' introduces to the reader. It is clear from the novel that John the Savage ultimately destroys all those from the World State that he comes to know regularly. The writer discusses that even John himself is finally destroyed by his interaction with the world: unable to face the mounting pressure to 'perform' his self-flagellation for the viewing public, and saddened by his beating of Lenina, he commits suicide. The writer concludes that Huxley wanted to show that life without emotion is nothing, and so those who are confronted by emotion in the shape of John the savage must be punished.

From the Paper
"However, John has not been raised in isolation from the Savages, and is therefore able to read literature which would have been unavailable in the World State He lives in isolation, in-between the worlds of his mother, Linda, and that of his adopted tribe. His story makes clear that he has not been totally accepted by the tribe; and later events make it clear that he will not be accepted by the World State either.
"The personality of John, as is revealed in the first chapters, is that of a rather enthusiastic, naive young man. He does not realize that Bernard and Lenina are revolted by him, at this stage he does not understand the differences between his present life, and the World State ...

Abstract
This paper examines whether or not Huxley's novel "Brave New World" describes a utopia for the majority of its citizens. The paper describes life in an engineered world and focuses on the willingness of the people to delude themselves for "happiness."

From the Paper
"Written in the years after the Russian revolution, the book "Brave New World" was the author's ironic vision of utopia in which "Community Identity Stability" is the state motto. The purpose of this essay is to evaluate whether "Brave New World" indeed represented a utopia to the members of its society."

Abstract
The following paper is a critical analysis of Aldous Huxley's novel 'Brave New World', where he explores the possibility that the greater number of a population can be pleased with a long, uneventful life having the simple and direct aim of administering one task to society. The writer of this paper examines the consequences of a 'utopian' society, as put forward by Huxley. This paper explores the possibility that if a society chooses to listen, there will certainly be a tremendous decision made for the future of the world. According to the writer it may accept the changes that technology will make, and succumb to science, rationality, and servitude.

From the Paper
"The controlling factor behind the society of Brave New World is the World State. The World State consists of ten World Controllers, who cannot live within the normal classes of Brave New World because of their individualistic reasoning. The World State is a mysterious entity, "founded not on liberty, equality, and fraternity, but on community, identity, and stability." (Ramamurty 92)The Brave New World society has scientifically eliminated any traces of individuality (Paulsell 93). The social structure of this society consists of 5 classes of workers. These classes are, in ascending order of rank: Epsilon, Gamma, Delta, Beta, and Alpha. The largest order, the Epsilons are morons. The Gammas are only slightly more intelligent than the Epsilons. The Deltas, the middle level in the social caste, are of average intelligence. The Betas are typically industrial workers with essentially average intellect. The Alphas are the head of the caste system and are extremely hard workers who hold the most difficult jobs (Lyne)."

Abstract
The paper relates that "A Brave New World" is a frightening portent of a possible totalitarian state dispassionately to maintain the status quo. The paper asserts that any useful feminist critique of the text must examine three things: Lenina, the primary female character in the book, the role of sex, and the means of reproduction. The paper points out that Huxley's own attitudes about women (certainly less than the feminist ideal) infiltrated his novel and contributed to the portrayal of women as either sexual objects or daughters to be guarded.

From the Paper
"Aldous Huxley's "A Brave New World" is a classic of dystopic literature. In it, the masters of the world rely on technology to control the population and manipulate the direction of civilization itself (Bracali). The opening pages of the book unveil the inner workings of a human hatchery, in which human beings are artificially grown to precise genetic specifications, followed by years of social conditioning to ensure they become perfect citizens. For many, "A Brave New World" is a frightening portent of a possible totalitarian state dispassionately to maintain the status quo. Any useful feminist critique of the text must examine three things:..."

Abstract
This paper shows that a look at Aldous Huxley's novel "Brave New World" through the eyes of a criminologist reveals the relevance of such theories as Hersch's Social Bonding Theory, Sutherland's Differential Association Theory, and Merton's Theory of Anomie.

From the Paper
"The futuristic society envisaged by Aldous Huxley in Brave New World is a utilitarian sanctuary in which all social efforts have been coordinated to produce stability and harmony. In this world personal liberties are quashed in the name of empty pleasures and mindless sensory delights that in spite of their dehumanizing effects do nonetheless produce and perpetuate a gloss of happiness that sustains the citizenry. Genetically engineered and hypnopaedically conditioned to accept-even enjoy-one's station in life the typical citizen in Huxley's future is free in a critical sense ..."

Abstract
This paper examines how the state's material religion in the novel" Brave New World" is based on Henry Ford's mechanical assembly-line society rather than a spiritual God.

From the Paper
"It is no accident that Bernard Marx in Aldous Huxley's Brave New World is tormented by his awareness of his individuality. Huxley uses Bernard's last name to refer to Karl Marx who is famous infamous for his quote that Religion..."

Abstract
The paper concerns itself with the ways in which America is progressing into the 'World State' culture depicted in Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World". It explains that through our cultural ideology and values, our American civilization is becoming it's own dystopia.

From the Paper
"It's quite hard to imagine the United States of America in the same context as World State of Brave New World. After all, America is the land of the free. America has morals. It's not America, land of free, uninhibited fornication or, America, land of free drug distribution. However, the truth is there are only enough dissimilarities to distinguish our American values and culture from that artful work of fictitious literature. In fact, World State may not be ruled-off as the possible futuristic fate of our nation. Our culture parallels that of World State in uncannily similar ways."

Abstract
The paper addresses George Orwell's "Nineteen Eighty Four" and Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World" that both make the protagonists seem sane to the reader, but insane in the world that they live in. The paper shows how sanity is very much based and defined on context where one exists.

From the Paper
"George Orwell's "Nineteen Eighty Four" and Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World" both redefine what sanity and insanity is based on the societies that the authors describe. Both novels deal with a futuristic society where things are done differently...very differently than what the reader perceives their own world to be like. In actuality, both Orwell and Huxley are making a statement about what the reader thinks is sane or insane. George Orwell's "Nineteen Eighty Four" and Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World" both make the protagonists seem sane to the reader, but insane in the world that they live in."
