Firstly, when the government tries to enforce their beliefs through sexual management to gain control, society must rebel to become truly individual. Orwell’s well known novel, 1984, showcases these scenarios to the fullest. The citizens of Oceania are forced to suppress their sexual desires and are encouraged to view sex simply as a duty to the Party. Sex is not meant to be enjoyed sufficiently and is treated as just a procreative process for creating new Party members. All the pent-up sexual frustration and emotion is then used to encourage hatred for the Party’s political enemies through ferocious displays of antagonism.
Most think that we live in a place where we can think on our own and we are encouraged to believe whatever we want. We never think of some obvious things that are just norms in our society. We look at women and we know the difference between ugly and beautiful, because we have been taught this. Social norms come naturally because we have been taught then our whole life and then have been engrained into our heads, just like the alphabet and simple kindergarten skills. Humans can grow up and be conditioned to believe whatever we want them to, it is just a matter of making their brain accustom to a different world or set of beliefs.
To quote Johnny Depp, “I’m not a big pothead or anything like that… but weed is much, much less dangerous than alcohol.” The most common myth is that marijuana leads to harder drugs, which is not true and has been proven by the National Institute of Health. Marijuana is the safest of all drugs. It is far safer to smoke a joint than to have a beer. Marijuana makes most people more relaxed. It relieves the clutter and tension after a hard days work.
| A Clockwork Orange | Brittney Rieder | | | 12/5/2012 | | A Clockwork Orange is a portrait of how human nature reacts juxtaposed with the overarching powers that be molding its’ citizens into submission of their way of life. The loss of Alex’s free-will and its effects show the need for the capability to choose evil and that the efficient way for inmate treatment should not be the goal of the corrections system. There is also focus on the internal fight between good and evil and the power of choice in this struggle. The novel pertains to reality acting as a dystopian funhouse mirror of how the state controls society and treats the incarcerated and as a symbol of rebellion for those challenging the state. It depicts unflinchingly the battle between freedom and constraint plus society’s use of drastic means to set the deviant straight in the place of a rehabilitative program in conjunction with punishment.
They learn about the mistakes other people have made and intelligently base decisiojns on their knowledge of stories and experiences they have heard about. Adolescents with good (and realistic) role models are often intelligent, well behaved, and get farther in life than those with no role model or goals. It makes more sense to raise a child on good morals and values than to let the child fend for themselves or feed on negativity. As growing people, we learn about other peoples accomplishments and strive for our own accomplishments. Our goals and wishes are something to be worked toward, and our morals/stories give us examples as to how to persevere.
Soma is a way to keep a stable social atmosphere because by causing these hallucinations, people are distracted and drawn away from seeing the truth of what world reality they are living in which is miserable and controlled which would make any person miserable. The high the soma creates is like any other drug in society today and is not real but people get addicted to it because it is an escape so this happiness people think they are experiencing is fake and meaningless. Soma makes it seem like reality can’t bring happiness because it only brings hate, anger and sadness. People find themselves getting involved in an illusion because they believe it is better than what real life can offer which is really sad so even when they think they are happy they are still defeated by being sad because they are turning to drugs to make them happy which give them fake
The Brave New World is about our world that will be found in the future with very advanced technology. It talks about how you can be happy by just taking pills everyday when you feel down and you can be pregnant by in vitro fertilization. It also shows us differences between the reservation and the World State that the reservation is dirty and unsanitary and that the World State is clean and perfect. This shows us what we may expect to see in the future when we will have technology advantages that will go beyond. Science and technology advances are good and bad when used in the wrong way.
According to some theories of socialisation, individuals are like an empty blood vessel waiting to fill up with society’s culture. Functionalists believe that parents, teachers and others fill children with the shared culture so that they come to conform to society’s expectations without having to think about it. Functionalists think that primary socialisation teaches children the skills and behaviour they need to interact with others at school and as they progress into secondary socialisation. They believe that education teaches children the norms and values they need to cooperate with others and help to transmit culture to the next generation. Religion and mass media are also
When communicating with CYPA (children, young people and adults), listening to them and showing an interest in what they are saying, is vital for them to feel that what they have to say is worthwhile. If when they are talking to you, you start talking to someone else or start doing something else, they will quickly lose interest and stop talking. This may make the child not want to come to you in future, as they will feel you don’t listen to them. Smiling and looking friendly, displaying open body language, will help CYPA feel more comfortable in approaching you. Appropriate eye contact should be made, which will reinforce your interest to the individual.
