DAVID MENZIES | A Clockwork Orange was meant as fiction — not policy blueprint

About this Episode

This year marks 55 years since A Clockwork Orange hit cinemas, and time has only sharpened its warning. Stanley Kubrick’s film, adapted from Anthony Burgess’s novel, imagined a Britain drowning in violent crime while a warped government experimented with “compassion” instead of consequences. The twist wasn’t just the violence, it was the state’s belief that criminals could be reprogrammed if only society tried harder to understand them.
