Hello!

I'm writing an essay about fear and I need some examples from the book 1984. About fear and it can't create utopia because 1984 is a dystopia society right? I just need some examples about 1984 and how it turned into a dystopia society?

Thank you!

There's many examples,

1. You have the constant surveillance by the Party through telescreens which ensures Party memebers abide by Party rules.

2. The Thought Police, which kind of works with the telescreens, fear is instilled in the people because they know if they do anything wrong, such as when Winston writes in his journal or pursues a relationship with Julia, they will be found and vaporized by the Thought Police.

3. Constant warfare around them, in the second part of the book there is a segment in Emmanuel Goldstein's book which talks about how the Party uses constant warfare to foster fear and how the Party uses this to create a sense of unity. If we're all afraid of the same enemy we feel as if there's a them (the enemy) and an us (the Party). I don't know if that will make sense to you..

4. The children in 1984 also generate fear. They have been manipulated by the Party into reporting any act against the Party that even parents are afraid that their own children will turn them in to the Thought Police.

Those are just some off the top of my head, there are plenty of examples of fear in the novel, it's like Orwell wrote it to be analyzed. Room 101 could also be used as an example as Winston's fear of rats was used to turn him against his lover, Julia.

Just read through the book again and something will defiantly pop out at you :)
