Expression for unorthodox thoughts in the novel Nineteen Eighty-Four
"Crimethink" redirects here. For the anarchist organisation/experiment, see CrimethInc.
For other uses, see Thoughtcrime (disambiguation).
In the dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, thoughtcrime is the offense of thinking in ways not approved by the ruling Ingsoc party. In the official language of Newspeak, the word crimethink describes the intellectual actions of a person who entertains and holds politically unacceptable thoughts; thus the government of The Party controls the speech, the actions, and the thoughts of the citizens of Oceania.[1]
In contemporary English usage, the word thoughtcrime describes the personal beliefs that are contrary to the accepted norms of society; thus thoughtcrime describes the theological practices of disbelief and idolatry,[2] and the rejection of an ideology.[3]
