Inner Party

The Inner Party is a privileged, governing subgroup within the fictional society of George Orwell’s "1984." They form the elite ruling class, possessing greater power, knowledge, and resources than the Outer Party and the proles. The Inner Party controls the government, surveillance, and propaganda, maintaining the Party’s ideology and dominance. Their members often enjoy privileges, including better living conditions and access to information, reinforcing social hierarchy. The Inner Party exemplifies the concentration of power in authoritarian regimes, where a small, elite group exercises control over society’s political, economic, and social structures.
