Western societies assume themselves more civilized than the other countries. However,
the Second World War and the atom bomb lead some scholars to question this
assumption. This paper argues that Burgess witnessing the increase in the teenage
violence is uneasy about the future of Western civilization. In A Clockwork Orange set
in England in the near future, Burgess presents that the increase in teenage violence may
result in state violence; some precautions taken by the state may violate human rights
which have been accepted as a new standard of civilization after the Second World
War, and some people thinking that the state does not punish the teenagers perpetrating
violence adequately may attempt to lynch them. This paper aims at discussing that the
teenage violence and the state violence depicted in the novel may be the indications
of an uncivilizing process for Burgess. Burgess displays as well that although the
teenagers using violence are, in fact, in need of affection and care, and they need the
guidance of their parents, the parents do not care for their teenage children since they
are busy with earning money. The paper concludes that in this novel Burgess warns his
readers that they should not expect the state to put an end to this uncivilizing process as the state may become totalitarian and suggests that parents may bring this process to an
end by caring about their children.
