Totalitarian regimes control all aspects of life. There is no such thing as pluralism or mobilization in the regime. There are only 2 sorts of regimes so far: communism under Stalin, and Fascist under Hitler, not Mussolini.

All aspects of life: therefore, controlling culture, economy, education, family, friends, and morals/beliefs.

Communism: They have this Utopian Ideology that they follow to make things right. They look toward the future rather than the past.

While Fascist/Nazis: they look toward the "glorious" past until the scapegoats: in this case the jews, messed things up

and also, Nazis built on an ideology that agrarian race is superior, all other races are inferior!

Authoritarian regimes: there is some sort of pluralism, but there can only be one sort of pluralism, if there is political pluralism, then there can't be social pluralism and vice versa. There can also be a little bit of mobilization, yet they can't protest against gov't or the law

How does a totalitarian government differ from most authoritarian governments in terms of control and power over its citizens?

In a totalitarian government, control and power over citizens are more extensive and intrusive compared to most authoritarian governments. Totalitarian regimes seek to dominate all aspects of society, including thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors, through extensive propaganda, surveillance, and repression. Authoritarian governments, on the other hand, may allow for some degree of individual freedom and autonomy, even though they still maintain significant control over political and social life.


What of the following describes a major difference between totalitarianism and authoritarianism?

Totalitarianism seeks to control all aspects of public and private life, including thoughts and beliefs, while authoritarianism focuses on maintaining political power and control without necessarily intrusive interference into personal lives. Totalitarian regimes tend to have a single ruling party, extensive use of propaganda, and a charismatic leader, whereas authoritarian regimes may allow for some level of opposition or limited political pluralism.
