This paper delves into Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World to scrutinise the influence of technology on societal structures and human experience. It examines how technological advancements, spanning genetic engineering and reproductive control, psychological conditioning and indoctrination, pharmacological manipulation, surveillance practices, and mechanised forms of entertainment and social interaction reshape the dystopian landscape of the novel. This study explores themes of dehumanisation, alienation, and the broader critique of societal norms and ethical implications inherent in technological dominance. It offers a critical lens on how Huxley’s narrative serves as a cautionary tale, urging reflection on the ethical boundaries of technological progress and its impact on human identity and societal dynamics.
