Hello comrades,
Are there any essays by Orwell that are particulary about the dangers of tyranny and its philosophy.

Yes. "England Your England", "My Country Right or Left" and "Shooting an Elephant" all spring to mind, but there are others.

reason why i ask is im going to be doing research on the dangers of neoconservitism soon, and at the moment i'm reading 1984, and i thought it would be interesting to seen what orwell would say against it in a more formal form

"Looking Back on the Spanish Civil War" contains some great material about tyranny. Orwell also did a review of Mein Kampf. "Catastrophic Gradualism" talks about Western apologists for Stalinism.
