The social context that is represented in “The Outsiders”, is relevant to its time, as the author, Susan Eloise Hinton, herself faced social degradation in her high school class.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The novel is about the clashes between the lesser privileged section of the community and the higher orders of the community. The clashes are about the superiority of each section of society and the rules that govern the same.
It is also about friendships made and broken for the fear of being hurt or being let down, about love and fear between the two classes, and finally about how at the end of all, it does not make sense to maintain so much of enemy as each person differs in their circumstances.
The author is young and a female faced similar clashes in her times at the time of writing her book. She was also asked to change her name to be gender-neutral to appeal more to the crowd.

Explanation:
Aldoux Huxley's <em>Brave New World</em> is set in a dystopian world where the off-springs of the people were genetically engineered and already classed into their predestined castes from birth. The setting of the story is in the year 2540 AD, and deals with the theme of science and efficiency, away from humanistic emotions and feelings.
In chapter 17, John, the son of Linda and the Director of the Hatchery and Bernard Marx along with Helmholtz Watson are exiled for causing a scandal in the society. When told about how everything has been engineered to be comfortable for the people, John demands that he did not <em>"want comfort [but rather] God, poetry, real danger, freedom, goodness [and] sin"</em>.
At this, Mustapha Mond, the "<em>Resident World Controller for Western Europe</em>" suggests that John is claiming<em> "the right to be unhappy"</em>, for everything that he's just demanded is against the way of their scientifically engineered world. And with his demand, he's claiming all the ills of human life that the<em> "New World"</em> is offering.
