themes
I think by far the most reaccuring theme in the book 1984 is mind control. It should be obvious to every character in the book that their own government, which they allow to continue to exsist, is doing everything it can to make sure they have absolute control over all that they govern. From having their hedious leaders face plastered all over their city, to installing small cameras in everybodies home, to getting children to rat out on their own parents, they have no problem breaking every moral rule imaginable, just to make sure they keep their presious power. Weather they are so determined to to stay in power because they have become accustom to that kind of life style or because of that old saying "those who have power, fear losing it" but it is obvious that everyone in the inner party is just running things for themselves.there was alot of mind control in the story like telescreen, the victory and much more
