In the long run, a hierarchical society was only possible on a basis of poverty and ignorance....если свободное время и безопасность есть у всех, огромные массы людей, ранее отупляемых бедностью, станут грамотными и научатся думать самостоятельно. А когда это произойдет, они рано или поздно осознают, что привилегированное меньшинство не выполняет никакой полезной функции, и сметут его. В долгосрочной перспективе иерархическое общество может существовать лишь на фундаменте бедности и невежества. Cut off from contact with the outer world, and with the past, the citizen of Oceania is like a man in interstellar space, who has no way of knowing which direction is up and which is down. The rulers of such a state are absolute, as the Pharaohs or the Caesars could not be. They are obliged to prevent their followers from starving to death in numbers large enough to be inconvenient, and they are obliged to remain at the same low level of military technique as their rivals; but once that minimum is achieved, they can twist reality into whatever shape they choose.

Они обязаны не допускать, чтобы их подданные слишком уж массово умирали от голода, и поддерживать столь же низкий уровень военной оснащенности, как у конкурентов. За пределами этого минимума им позволено искривлять реальность как заблагорассудится. The war is waged by each ruling group against its own subjects, and the object of the war is not to make or prevent conquests of territory, but to keep the structure of society intact. The very word "war," therefore, has become misleading. It would probably be accurate to say that by becoming continuous war has ceased to exist. The peculiar pressure that it exerted on human beings between the Neolithic Age and the early twentieth century has disappeared and been replaced by something quite different. Войну ведет правящая элита каждого государства против собственных подданных, и цель войны не в захвате территорий или его предотвращении, но в сохранении структуры общества.
