George Orwell's novel Animal Farm is a satirical fable that illustrates his criticism of society. He uses the novel in the form of a fable to communicate his attitude towards the political system of Soviet Russia. “All animals are equal but some are more equal than others.” In this novel, the autocracy, the exploited working class, and the evolution of the pigs of Animal Farm demonstrate a caricature of social evolution in Soviet Russia. Orwell uses a circular plot to emphasize the cycle of revolution and the inevitability of dictatorship. Its goal is to convey that despite the need for improvement, the structure of a society will remain the same if change is not fundamental. The need for leadership and the inevitability of social structure within a society leads to the failure of revolutions in which it evolves in a cycle. “One leader, one people, means one master and millions of slaves.” George Orwell's Animal Farm depicts a cycle of leadership and dictatorship. Despite the change of leaders, the revolution leads to the same results with the presence of a leader. Leaders “consume without producing” (P.4, Orwell), all common animals “have no better fate” (P.5, Orwell) and no common animal has more than its own rations and a stable. However, the novel accentuates the role of leadership within a society. Without leadership, the rebellion would not have happened. It is evident that “the whole management and organization of this farm” (P.23, Orwell) depends on the pigs. Orwell points to the importance of leadership when Boxer “looked at Napoleon to know whether he should crush the dog to death or let him go” during the execution. Animals would lack guidance, vision and direction without leadership. Although I... half of the document... the alteration of the title to revolution. The circular plot of Orwell's novel prevents the reader from imagining a better future for Animal Farm. Although Animal Farm is a parody of social evolution in Soviet Russia, it still holds true today. Animal Farm has stood the test of time due to its relevance to today's society. Although socialism is dead, its theories are still alive. The novel, portrayed as a political fable, reflects manipulative human nature and human nature's tendency to categorize society. His critiques of society are portrayed in such a timeless manner that his concepts are relevant to today and will most likely be valid for future generations. cycle how: cycle-leadership, despite changing leaders, leadership styles are still the sameWhy: people's cycling tendency to change and social structure** key points
