What Are The Similarities Between 1984 And Brave New World
Comparison of The Red Hat with works of others
I would like to compare The Red Hat with two famous soft sci-fi books that were published in last century, Brave New World of Aldous Huxley and 1984 of George Orwell . A very basic common place of these three books in the comparison, Brave New World, 1984, and The Red Hat, is that they are all devoted to defend humanity against potential threats from either evil ambitions of some individuals and social practices based on erroneous ideological theories or the abuse of the development of scientific achievements in ways that could be harmful to the society.

Nevertheless, The Red Hat is a novel that is meant to follow the dynamic step of our civilization, with novelties in the philosophical contemplation conveyed by the book, in the development of the involved technological ideas or the social applications of the involved available technologies, as well as in the style of the plot design. Therefore, the comparison between The Red Hat and the above mentioned books are meaningful only in a more general system of historical coordinates. So far it’s very hard to find a book that could be considered as a close comparable to The Red Hat in contemporary
