Abstract
The social state depicted in Huxley’s Brave New World is something about which we need to be vigilant in the 21st century, and it also inspires us to question what truly constitutes a beautiful society. Given the significant relevance of the book Brave New World to hegemonism and cultural output in the 21st century, this thesis aims to discuss the portrayal of the World State in the 26th century as depicted in Brave New World from three perspectives: docile bodies, the means of correct training, and panopticism by applying Foucault’s discipline theory. This thesis reveals that the seemingly beautiful and satisfying world is actually an empty and oppressive society, emphasizing the importance of self-awareness awakening.
