Group A #1 Although the distopias of Orwell’s Oceania and Niccol’s not to distant American city are in many ways similar in the sense of totalitarianism. The systems of control are quit different. Orwell’s world seems to be an overbearing socialist police state where as‚ the world in Gattaca is almost total control by science. The two pieces were written decades apart from one another‚ but both the film and the novel send a clear message; to enjoy the social mobility and freedoms of modern life

surpassed aggression‚ war‚ hate‚ and crime while establishing "peaceful" and orderly communities. A Utopian society could not exist with the individuality that nature has bestowed on the human race. So long as humans remain unique in their state of mind‚ utopia is a mere fantasy. To work around this problem a society must adapt itself to achieve a utopian-like state. This can be achieved by one of two ways. One way could be known as a "hostile transfer." This way is shown in the novel "farenheight 451"

Thomas More believe in a perfect world in which everybody lived in harmony and peace‚ such as Utopia. He wrote about Utopia to identify the dystopian issues he saw and wanted to fix. Dystopia is the complete opposite of utopia; bad and unpleasant. “It is true that I am not one of those who laugh at utopias. The utopia of today can become the reality of tomorrow.

Some people say that Utopias can’t exist‚ but I believe that they can. Therefore‚ I disagree with the people that say that Utopias can’t exist because the Amish accomplished it. The Amish have a working good Utopia that many people live in. One of the main reasons Utopian societies exist is to make people happy in their lives. Many people move into Utopian Societies to have freedom. “The Amish faith forbids violence and active and military service.” (The Amish Lifestyle; paragraph #2) The Amish

A person living in a perfect utopia wakes up to a dystopia! “A utopia is a place of ideal perfection‚ especially in laws‚ government and social conditions.” (Merriam-Webster). On the other hand‚ “A dystopia is an imaginary place where people lead dehumanized and often fearful lives.” (Merriam-Webster). A Utopia can become a dystopia by either the population becoming aware and rebelling or the society not being able to function (this may be caused by the leader and or corruption). An example of this
