The dictatorship of the future , I think will be very the dictatorships which we've been familiar with in the immediate past . I mean , take ( for example ) another book the future , which was a very remarkable book , George Orwell's " 1984 . "

Well , this book was written at the height of the Stalinist regime , and just after the Hitler regime , and there he a dictatorship using entirely the methods of terror , the methods of physical violence . Now , I think what is going to happen in the future is that dictators will find , as the old saying goes , that you can do everything with bayonets except sit on them !

But , if you want to preserve your power indefinitely , you have to get the consent of the ruled , and this they will do partly by drugs as I foresaw in " Brave New World , " partly by these new techniques of .

They will do it by the sort of rational side of man ( frontal cortex ) and to his subconscious and his deeper emotions ( the limbic system ) , and his physiology even , and so , making him actually love his slavery .

I mean , I think , this is the danger that actually people may be , in some ways , happy under the new regime , but that they will be happy in situations where they to be happy .

Aldous Wallace - - Well , let me ask you this . You're talking about a world that could take place within the confines of a totalitarian state . Let's become more immediate , more urgent about it . We believe , anyway , that we live in democracy here in the United States . Do you believe that this Brave New World that you talk about , er . . . could , let's say in the next quarter century , the next century , could come here to our shores ?

Aldous Huxley - - I think it could . I mean , er . . . that's why I feel it so extremely important here and now , to start thinking about these problems . Not to let ourselves be taken by surprise by the . . . the new advances in technology . I mean the . . . for example , in the regard to the use of the . . . of the drugs .

We know , there is enough evidence now for us to be able , ( ( on the basis of this evidence and using certain amount of creative imagination , ) ) to foresee the kind of uses which could be made by people of bad with these things and to to forestall this , and in the same way , I think with these other methods of we can and we can do a good deal to forestall . I mean , after all , the price of freedom is eternal vigilance .
