2.3.3 Social discrimination
Social discrimination arises from class differences, genders, classes, colours, religions in social life. But what is going on today is that social discrimination. It is caused by social status in society. Usually different classes such as upper, middle and lower class still felt the effect until today.The upper group will receive preferential treatment in the life of society; the middle class is a little serious, while the lower class is taken down. The low class that often gets social discrimination on the condition of society. The differences in social status of the community are also discussed Orwell in his work The Road to Wigan Pier, Animal Farm and 1984. In The Road to Wigan Pier, Orwell demanded justice for the working class. As on Animal Farm, which is categorized as an animal, Orwell criticizes the gap that took place under the leadership of the Communists. And his work in 1984 explicitly describes how the society lives under the control of the totalitarian party, as well as the social discrimination experienced by the Proletary class. The great majority of proles did not even have telescreen in their homes. Even the civil police interfered with them very little. There was a vast amount of criminalty in London, a whole word-within-a-word of thieves, bandits, prostitutes, drug peddlers, and racketeers of every description; but since it all happened among the proles themselves, it was of no importance(Orwell, 1961: 72) In the quotation above, Orwell shows how unfair the ruling behaviour of the Proles. Proles are treated as if they are not part of the state, they are free to commit any crime as long as it revolves on its own. As long as the Prole keeps working, they are freed like the free animals of the Party.
CHAPTER III
METHODOLOGY
In this section includes the discussion of methodological design, method of collecting data, method of data analysis, and procedures of research.
3.1 Methodological Design
Methodology is the science or the means used to obtain a search with the truth by using a sequence or certain procedures according to what will be studied or investigated scientifically. However, there are two methods of the research, namely quantitative and qualitative research. But in this case, the writer uses qualitative methods to analyse the social criticism 1984 especially is the effects of totalitarian government system to the characters in the novel. However, in a work of literature the use of numbers should be coupled with a more descriptive explanation to understand, and then the writer uses a qualitative method described analytically.
