The Failed Revolution of Winston and Julia in 1984 Versus The Successful Revolution in District 13 in Mockingjay

Abstract

This article’s aim is to analyze the three different dystopian works; comparing George Orwell’s 1984 with Suzanne Collins’s The Hunger Games and Mockingjay, concerning anarchic positive perspective. It also presents how and why anarchism is necessary. Anarchism becomes important when dystopic systems dehumanize people and violate their free will by enslaving them. Moreover, this article intends to find an answer to the questions of how and why revolutions succeed; as in Mockingjay or fail as in 1984. Is anarchism a precept of life or is it simply a political theory that rejects all forms of despotic power? In his novel, Orwell addresses Oceania’s citizens’ situation of, control, oppression, power, and dehumanization. The author also predicts the future when people are under extreme control by the state. In a post-apocalyptic world, Collins displays the situation of the people of Panem, where control, violence, oppression, and dehumanization are also dominant matters. Additionally, this work shows how the state violates people’s available choices in life, and its impact on individuals. Furthermore, it explores the revolutions and conflicts to be in power or to be free.
