Abstract:
The main objective of this thesis is to analyze and describe those particularities which
emphasize Aldous Huxley’s futurology, (future studies) regarding future studies in America.
Aldous Huxley author of several essays and novels argued that while so called machine aga
brought tremendous benefits and alterations to mankind in America, on the other hand one
fault was its debasement of the culture that man now had more time to pursue. Huxley
throughout his activities displays the “revolt of the highbrows”, so as saying goes the most
dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out for himself
without regard to the prevailing superstitions, prejudices and taboos, and if I do say so myself
this is the way how futurology works. Huxley’s essay “The Outlook for American Culture” is
definitely the most prominent essay which greatly influenced America. Interest towards the
essay never gets lower, even in 1970 above-mentioned essay was republished with the updated
name – “America and the Future” which was demonstrated, interest and influence on this
subject.
