The social criticism in george orwell'S 1984

Party members were supposed not to go into ordinary shops ―dealing on the 
free market,‖ it was called), but the rule was not strictly kept, because there 
were various things such as shoelaces and razor blades which it was 
impossible to get hold of in any other way (Orwell, 1961:6).

All marriages between Party members had to be approved by a committee 
appointed for the purpose, and thought the principle was never clearly 
stated permission of being physically attracted to one another. The only 
recognized purpose of marriage was to beget children for the service of the 
Party (Orwell, 1961:65). 
All behaviour, conversations, emotions of Party workers are tapped and 
watched. There is not way for Party workers to be free from Party oversight. 
A Party member is expected to have no private emotions and no respites 
from enthusiasm. He is supposed to live in a continuous frenzy of hatred of 
foreign enemies and internal traitors, triumph over victories, and self-
abasement before the power and wisdom of the Party (Orwell, 1961:211). 
After the marriage of the Party's fellow workers, the Party has forbidden 
divorce, but when the marriage does not produce a child, the Party will remove 
the two couples without divorce. 
The Party did not permit divorce, but it rather encouraged separation in 
cases where there were no children (Orwell, 1961:66). 
Differ from the proleter, when the Party focuses its attention on the Party 
workers, on the contrary the Party allowed the Proletaries to live free and at their 
want. 
From the proletarians nothing is to be feared. Left to themselves, they will 
continue from generation to generation and from century to century, 
working, breeding, and dying, not only without any impulse to rebel, but 
without the power of grasping that the world could be other than it is. They 
could only become dangerous if they advance of industrial technique made 
it necessary to educate them more highly; but, since military and 
commercial rivalry are no longer important, the level of popular education is 
actually declining (Orwell, 1961:210).

In addition, to the freedom of life of the proletariat, the Party also does not 
oversee the proletarians with the telescreen. The prolesare allowed to live free of 
their want as long as they kept their morale and work for the Party. 
The great majority of proles did not even have telescreen in their homes. 
Even the civil police interfered with them very little. There was a vast 
amount of criminality in London, a whole world-within-a-world of thieves, 
bandits, prostitutes, drug peddlers, and racketeers of every description; but 
since it all happened among the proles themselves, it was of no importance 
(Orwell, 1961:72). 
Proletarian marriages take place at the wish of the people themselves. The
