George Orwell's 1984 novel chronicles the life of Winston as he attempts to resist the power of the totalitarian government of Oceania known as The Party. Even if the proletarians seem marginalized from within the party, they are not aware of it. They are free and have a sense of individualism to live their lives. On the other hand, the outside party is aware of the manipulative powers of the Party and is capable of rebelling. It is for this reason that they are subject to severe surveillance. By showing different ways in which the Party exercises its supreme power, Orwell marginalizes the outside party. The Inner Party uses its power to attempt to control the thoughts of the Outer Party. First, they keep the Outer Party (and proletarians for that matter) in the dark regarding wars and other events in which Oceania is involved, for example wars with Eastasia and Eurasia. Throughout the novel, the Party comes and goes with whom it is at war. Whether they tell citizens they are against Eurasia or Eastasia, they claim to have been at war with this nation and only this nation. The ever-changing facts cause Winston and other members of the Outer Party to question the legitimacy of this idea, but they have no choice but to agree with it and show their enthusiasm about this. This shows how powerless the Outer Party truly is. Second, by including that "in the end, the Party would announce that two and two make five, and it would have to be believed" (80), it shows the enormous power that the Party retains and the impact of the Party. The party can have over its people. By pointing out a clearly false fact, it reinforces the idea that the Outer Party can be linked to those who are brainless – those who are almost like robots in the middle of a paper… as long as the party exists. In other words, as long as the Party exists, its citizens of Oceania will always be monitored. Again, this shows how the outside party is marginalized due to their government's lack of knowledge and the lack of power they have. By making the atmosphere of Oceania fearful and full of paranoia, Orwell demonstrates the ability of the inner party to silence the outer party and show ultimate control over them. In conclusion, Orwell used many elements in 1984 in order to show the social status of the party. outside party and how they were marginalized. By showing the absolute power obtained by the Party's totalitarian government, how it has monitored the outside party and how it uses Big Brother as a symbol of the fact that it is always being watched; Orwell described the out-group as a group of disadvantaged and fearful people..
