Author's Comments: Contexts is a publication of the American
Sociological Association. The paper is part
of the symposium "America in a new age of
global conflict", organized by the author at
the 2004 ASA annual meeting.
Abstract: Sociology needs to pay attention to global
conflicts, such as inter-civilizational
conflicts and world wars. In the present
decade, the United States has entered into a
world war against a stateless but real
enemy. Domestic and international
consequences of this are profound in
providing a certain applicability to
Orwell's "1984". Hence the title of this
article.
Keywords: Huntington; Orwell; global conflict; welfare state; warfare state
