1984

What are some positive aspects about society in  "1984."

I don't think there are any, but that depends on what you would define as "positive."  The proles have the most positive life if you think of postive as being "free" to live as you please, even if most of the tasks that you perform are menial and there is no larger purpose to your existence.  The Inner party has a positive life if you define that as exercising power and control over all other members of society.  The Outer party members seem to have the least positive life.  They have none of the "freedom" of the Proles and none of the "control"  of the Inner party.  Orwell seems to have created the society without positives ... but perhaps that what he had in mind.  Please let me know if your question had a direction I missed ... and perhaps someone else will be able to answer it in another way.

I would say that one thing that could be considered positive is safety. As long as people in Oceania live according to the standard, as long as they fit into what is appropriate for their society, they are unified and protected.

In America we give up freedom for safety all the time. This may not be positive in the sense that it is desirable, but it is a reality that is not entirely negative. Alexis de Tocqueville discusses the idea of sacrificing freedom for safety in his work "Democracy in America"
