Question: Why is Brave New World considered a dystopia!?
I would love to live in that world! Who's with me!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
There were problems with the society!. A utopia is perfect and really an unreachable ideal!. A dystopia is a failed utopia!. In this case, the rules used to create a perfect society also prevented individualist thinking (our means of progress) and discouraged family units (the main reason we seek progress)!. In effect, the Brave New World was a stagnant society that could only go down from where it was!.

Other dystopias in fiction include THX 1138, 1984, Farenheit 451, and Logan's Run!. Each one is by a different author and each underlines how much we need individualist thinking and family in order to progress!. We cannot let the state control our lives!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A perfect world necessarily has a perfect God!. The world depicted in that novel, then, can only be described as Hellish!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
