"Every Dictator's Nightmare" is a phrase that highlights the fear dictators have of an informed and empowered citizenry. It signifies the power of knowledge, unity, and resistance against authoritarian regimes. It implies that educated and empowered individuals can challenge and potentially overthrow dictators, making it their worst nightmare.
North Korea is often referred to as a non-communist dictatorship, as it operates under a totalitarian regime and is ruled by the Kim dynasty. However, it officially identifies as a socialist state.
Charlie Chaplin directed the film 'The Great Dictator'.
A government system that combines elements of both a dictatorship and a monarchy is known as an absolute monarchy. In an absolute monarchy, the king or queen holds complete authority and has absolute power over the government and the people. This means that they can make decisions without limitations or constraints, similar to a dictatorship, but their position is inherited rather than acquired through force.
In some cases, dictators may be able to come to power through a process that involves the manipulation of elections or the interference of the Supreme Court. However, it is important to note that dictators typically do not follow democratic processes or adhere to the rule of law. Dictators often seize power through force, coercion, or other undemocratic means.
A dictator holds absolute power in a country and governs without any checks or balances. They make all major decisions, control all branches of government, and suppress opposition. Dictators often rely on authoritarian and oppressive methods to sustain their rule, such as censoring the media, suppressing dissent, and quelling political opposition through force.
In present time, I don´t know about any dictator in South America, although almost ALL governors anywhere are, lol. Well, especially US media say THAT about the president of Venezuela, but about any others that won´t satisfy "their" interests too.
Na atualidade, não sei de ditador algum na América do Sul, embora quase todos OS governantes o sejam, rsrs. Bem, especialmente a mídia dos Estados Unidos dizem isso do presidente da Venezuela, mas de outros que não satisfaçam OS interesses "deles", também.
true
Some characteristics of dictatorship include a single ruler or small group holding absolute power, lack of political freedoms and civil liberties, suppression of opposition and dissent, control over media and information, and limited or no elections or a lack of fair and free elections. Dictatorships often exhibit authoritarianism, censorship, and state control over various aspects of society.
Dictatorship as a form of government originated in ancient Rome, specifically in the 4th century BCE. During times of crisis, a dictator would be appointed to hold absolute power and make quick decisions for the well-being of the state. However, dictatorship has existed in various forms throughout history, predating its formal establishment in Rome.
I am in favor of democracy because it provides equal rights and opportunities for all citizens, encourages participation and representation, and promotes accountability and transparency in government. Dictatorships, on the other hand, concentrate power in the hands of a few, suppress individual freedoms, and often lead to corruption, human rights abuses, and lack of progress. Democracy allows for the peaceful transfer of power and respects the will of the people, making it a better system for fostering stability and prosperity.
That's the whole point of a dictatorship. Peoples views are NOT taken into account. The dictator dictates the laws they he/she wants. End of story!!!!
In dictatorships the press is often silenced, or only allowed to publish what the dictator wants the public to read. People who try and publish other material are 'shut-down' and/or locked up.
Conversely, the word 'democracy' has it roots in Classical Greece, and means the 'rule or will of the people', ; 'Demos', people and 'Cratos' to rule. Peoples opinions and views are taken into account and the press can publish freely any material its likes. Hence the political leaders of a democratic nation have to make laws that reflect these views and opinions. People are not silenced.
Absolute monarchy. A dictatorship implies a republican form of government where the leader rules as a "first citizen", whereas in a monarchy, the ruler is a sovereign who embodies the state. Pharaohs fit the latter.
Fulgencio Batista rose to power in a coup, and cultivated the friendship of Meyer Lansky, a mobster from America. Under him, the ownership of land in Cuba shifted to non-Cubans, particularly Lansky's "friends" in the casino business. Most of the farm land was under the control of American corporations interested in cheap sugar. Batista was corrupt and corporate greed fed that corruption.
So, at least in the opinion of most historians, the answer is no. Batista was not a good ruler for Cuba.
Brazil has a president. It had a prime minister before, but no longer does.
No, Italy was not uncovered from the mediterranean sea until 1954. It was officially recognized by the newly formed united nations as a country in 1956. Italy was not a country during WW2
The UK is a democracy. It is true that they have a queen (Elizabeth II) however her position is ceremonial; she does not govern the country. There is an elected parliament which governs the UK.
A dictatorship can only be formed in a democratic country when there are severe problems that seem unsolvable. Here is what Benito Mussolini and his fascists took advantage of in order to gain power in Italy:
A. After World War One, Italy found itself in economic distress. Its already low standards of living declined further;
B. Ruinous inflation drove the prices of goods extremely high;
C. Taxes were applied to help pay for the costs of WW1;
D. There was a fear of Communism in Italy; and
E. The Italian government was weak. There was a lack of a democratic tradition in Italy.
Mussolini's fascists promised to solve all these problems, and by appealing to the peoples' desire for self esteem through nationalism, the fascists were able to gain control of Italy.
People were desperate. And the political state of countries were unorganized. The rise of fascism
