While reading Brave new world I have noticed that most of there society contains Beaucracy and a little of technological control. Ultimatley making this a Dystopian Genre. I see Beaucracy when there society is controlled by relentless regulations, which means that the "people" couldn't do what they wanted or had any choices but the ones that were given to be followed. And I see a little of technological control when there society is controlled by scientific means. For example, at the begining of the story they make test tube babies from perfectly feterlizing the ovaries of women. Which gives more of reason for a feminist to dislike this novel (ussage of women). So basically there whole world is made up of test tube babies. And when made giving them a set of rules they should follow and live by, following back on beaucracy control.
A marxist critic would love Brave New Wolrd, simply because of the social classes that seperate the "people" in the story. For right know the main character in the story is Benard which is an Alpha, but lack the physical apperance (shortness) of an Alpha. He is also the protagonist of this Dystopian genre. Which leads to him questioning the existing social systems that are there and believes or feels that something is terribly wrong with the society in which he lives in.
