Answer

In "Brave New World," citizens are controlled primarily through **genetic engineering and conditioning**. While other elements like the readily available pleasure drug, soma, contribute, the foundation of control lies in the engineered castes and the psychological conditioning they undergo from birth. This pre-determines their roles in society and eliminates dissatisfaction or rebellion.
