The Party uses techniques to break down the psychological independence of the people. An example of this would be the slogan "Who Controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past"
(Orwell 32). If you have control of the past, them you could control what will happen in the future. Not only that but you could make the people feel a certain away about the future. For example Oceania's past was based on slavery and poorness. Therefore the people feel that they have advanced as a society.
