A deep insight into the rule of a fascist state,
By
This review is from: Nineteen Eighty-four. (Hardcover)
A powerful book, that eerily depicts the direction the world is going where truth is shunted and lies are promoted by all the mainstream media. The three slogans of the Party as described in book is very familiar with what we hear from our leaders in these times:
War is Peace Freedom is Slavery Ignorance is Strength Orwell paints a picture of how this fascist totalitarian state is controlled by control surveillance, the new language of Newspeak and the three main ministries that are: "Ministry of Peace", which concerns itself with war "The Ministry of Truth", which takes care of news, entertainment, education etc. in short translated as the place of propaganda "The Mihistry of Love", which is concerned with law and order and according to Orwell the most frighening one. It is truly a must read book as the rise of fascism is happening. Can also highly recommend seeing the movie called "V for Vendetta", as it is also set in a fascist environment, that closely resembles the one George Orwell depicts in this book. Can recommend the book "Political Ponerology" to understand how a society becomes a fascist state.
