George Orwell's *Animal Farm*, published in 1945, serves as a timeless allegory of the Russian Revolution and a prophetic cautionary tale about the cyclical nature of political corruption. This thesis explores the enduring relevance of Orwell's work by drawing parallels between the themes and events depicted in *Animal Farm* and the current political climate across various global contexts. It delves into elite power grabs, propaganda, the betrayal of revolutionary ideals, and the exploitation of the working class, using modern examples like populist leaders and state-controlled media to highlight how Orwell's critique of power dynamics remains critically pertinent today.
