capitalism getting bigger like in Korea‚ some parts of Brave New World are becoming more and more real. With the growth in T.V. we don’t have to be asleep to be out into hypnopaedia.

called‚ Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. Our society is becoming like Brave New Worlds because our technology is just like theirs. Our technology is starting to make embryos in test tubes just like theirs. We already have the same drugs as them that make us happy‚ for quite a while now.

As human life is deprecated in Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World‚ the human life is equated to nothing more than the dirt from which it came. Huxley parallels himself‚ an aristocratic pedigree‚ to the upper class inhabitants of the brave new world that sought the meaning of human life above the accepted pretense of society.

In Brave New World‚ Aldous Huxley expresses that being human is about having the right to be unhappy and striving for greater struggles in life by defining the structures in his world that prevent freedoms. Starting from creation‚ the entire population of this “Brave New World”(139) is groomed to be who society wants them to be.
