Disciplinary Circuit
'Disciplinary Circuit' Summary
In a future society where happiness is enforced, a network of surveillance technology known as the Disciplinary Circuit monitors every citizen's thoughts and actions. The Council, a governing body that claims to promote the well-being of its citizens, uses the Disciplinary Circuit to ensure conformity and punish any signs of dissent. The story follows individuals caught in the web of this oppressive system, struggling to maintain their sense of individuality and questioning the very foundation of the society they live in. As the narrative unfolds, the reader is presented with a stark picture of a world where freedom of thought and expression are stifled, and the consequences of challenging the established order are dire. The novel explores themes of control, obedience, and the potential for rebellion in the face of a seemingly all-powerful system, leaving the reader to ponder the true cost of happiness and the potential for individual agency in a world where individuality is systematically suppressed.Book Details
