In A Clockwork Orange, Alex is being held in a total institution, which is a type of institution where individuals are completely cut off from society and their personal lives (including family and friends) and are subjected to a strict and total regime of control, discipline, and supervision. The aversion therapy that Alex undergoes is an extreme form of behavior modification that aims to change his violent behavior and make him conform to societal norms. The purpose of the total institution is to break down an individual's identity and rebuild it according to the norms and values of the institution.
