Political Spectrum – “1984” & Big Brother

The political spectrum is basically like a chart where certain governments fit in. Some would be on the right side and some would on the left. Or on the top, or the bottom. The difference between left and right politics is that the right has more of the “conservatives” views. They want to try to change as little as possible and bring back old traditions. The right side has more of a “liberals” view. It is basically almost like the opposite of the conservatives. They want the change, they want to bring new traditions into the country. The top side is more of the “authoritarian” side of the political spectrum. That’s a form of government where they have conservative voting. The bottom side is more of a “libertarian” side of the political spectrum. They try to get as much freedom as possible and individualism. In the book , “1984”, Big Brother fits more towards the top left side of the spectrum because they seem like a dictatorship. Ingsoc fits the same at the top left side because they act like a communistic place.
