التقنية والعلم وتجريد المجتمع من إنسانيته في رواية ألدوس هكسلي عالم جديد شجاع

الملخص

The study investigates the dialectical conflict between scientific advancement and human integrity in Aldous Huxley's Brave New World (1932). The study purports that the novel forecloses a dystopian future in which science and technology, in the possession of politicized and economic systems, act less as liberators than dehumanizers. The study maintains that Huxley is critical of progress fetishism, unveiling how reproductive technology, psycho-conditioning, and pharmacotherapy create a world in which individuality, creativity, and real relationships are systematically purged. Relying on theoretical insights from Herbert Marcuse, Jacques Ellul, and Michel Foucault, the analysis reveals that Huxley's world is not antiquated prophecy but an enduring critique of technocratic despotism. The study also situates Huxley's imagination in the context of real discourses upon biotechnology, artificial intelligence, and surveillance capitalism, suggesting that the novel illuminates the ongoing risks of subjecting human dignity to the imperatives of efficiency and domination.
