XML FeedsOrwell's new aristocracy
By jventola on Aug 9, 2009 | In philo2 | Send feedback »
In his dystopian 1984, the socialist George Orwell described what was to him a grim future:
The new aristocracy was made up for the most part of bureaucrats, scientists, technicians, trade-union organizers, publicity experts, sociologists, teachers, journalists, and professional politicians.
Do you agree with Orwell's list? Are these the new ruling classes? If so, should they be? Is this new aristocracy better, worse, or the same as the old one?
