Abstract
Huxley`s novel Brave New World and Orwell`s Nineteen Eighty-Four belong to the genre of dystopian literature. The works of dystopian literature show how a totalitarian government controls the society in order to achieve power and stability in the country. The World State in Brave New World and Oceania in Nineteen Eighty-Four represent such totalitarian states in which individual`s privacy is abolished because every aspect of one`s life is controlled by the government. By using various psychological techniques and by creating new rules, the governments of the World State and Oceania regulate several aspects of people`s privacy: their religion, family and sexual behaviour. Instead of God, the political leaders of the World State and Oceania represent objects of worship. Family relations are entirely changed in Nineteen Eighty-Four, while in Brave New World families do not even exist. Sexual desire is to be completely repressed in the state of Oceania, while the World State citizens are required to be promiscuous. The citizens of these two states do not have private lives because they are under constant surveillance of other people or the government itself. Finally, the government`s influence is so powerful that people are led to believe that they live in a perfect society while they actually live in a society in which everything, including people`s privacy, is regulated by the government.
