How was Joseph Stalin a ruthless dictator?

Many consider Stalin to be exactly that. He dealt with the Kulaks, Jews, and what he considered "enemies of the state", in very harsh manners. He was undoubtedly responsible for the deaths of millions (although exactly how many is unknown and highly debated).

He showed no signs of remorse, and the cruel ways in which he dealt with matters during his leadership where the reasons he was thought to be a ruthless dictator.

Well, actually Stalin was not as cruel, as people say now. Today Stalin-haters count every criminal, imprisoned since 24 to 53 as victim of terror. Lists of "repressed" also contain major errors. For example, i found in this list mine grand-grandfather - but he never was imprisoned or oppressed other way and live until 1989.

Why did the people of the Soviet Union choose to be ruled by a dictator?

The Russian people have seldom experienced anything other than autocracy, so there was no rush to adopt the democratic method. Also, living conditions increased significantly from 1917 onward, with Stalin changing the USSR from an agrarian state to an industrial power, and Khrushchev advocating the production of consumer goods in peacetime to keep people happy. Finally, the panoptic model maintained political stability by keeping anyone who opposed the government in strict control. I'd argue that the majority of people in the Soviet Union supported or dealt with apathetically the status quo from Stalin's time well into the 1980s. It's the case with most people. For example, you didn't see democrats overthrowing George W. Bush.

Why does Lenin consider his dictatorship of the proletariat to be preferable?

Lenin's "dictatorship of the proletariat" was never like Karl Marx's version. Lenin's dictatorship was preferable to him because he felt that the "proletariat" of Russia were not sufficiently aware of their class status as proletariat. He felt they needed a strong government run by a small group of people (the Bolsheviks/Communists) who would prevent them from trying to reverse the revolutionary gains of the revolution. If "his" version of the dictatorship of the proletariat were to be turned over to the workers of Russia in general as Marx had wanted, the people might have wanted a return to capitalism and an overthrow of socialism.

When was Adolf Hitler born and when was his first act as a dictator?

Hitler was born in Braunau am Inn, Austria on April 20, 1889.

In order to give Hitler dictatorial powers he had to ensure the passage of two laws. The first was the Reichstag Fire Decree, which was enacted on 27 February, 1933 which (among other things) suspended civil liberties and habeas corpus rights.

The second law was the Enabling Act, (Ermächtigungsgesetz) on 23 March, 1933 which gave Hitler and his government the power to enact laws without consulting the Reichstag. The Act effectively reduced the Reichstag to nothing more than a stage for Hitler's speeches and effectively gave him full dictatorial powers (although 2 "minor" obstacles still remained in the form of the Reichsrat (Germany's second chamber) and the President.

Joseph Goebbels wrote shortly after the passage of the Enabling Act: "The authority of the Führer has now been wholly established. Votes are no longer taken. The Führer decides. All this is going much faster than we had dared to hope."

Hitler's first political act as de facto dictator was to enact a law titled Vorläufiges Gesetz zur Gleichschaltung der Länder mit dem Reich (Provisional Law for Achieving Uniformity Between the States and the Reich) dated 30 March, 1933, which dissolved state parliaments and then reinstated them according to the votes received by parties in the Reich elections held on March 5 1933. As a result the Nazis now had majorities in all State parliaments.

he aso made the newburg laws wich are:

Section 1

  1. Marriages between Jews and citizens (German: Staatsangehörige) of German or kindred blood are forbidden. Marriages concluded in defiance of this law are void, even if, for the purpose of evading this law, they were concluded abroad.
  2. Proceedings for annulment may be initiated only by the Public Prosecutor.
Section 2Extramarital sexual intercourse between Jews and subjects of the state of Germany or related blood is forbidden.
  • (Supplementary decrees set Nazi definitions of racial Germans, Jews, and half-breeds or Mischlinge --- see the latter entry for details and citations and Mischling Test for how such decrees were applied. Jews could not vote or hold public office under the parallel "citizenship" law.)
Section 3Jews will not be permitted to employ female citizens under the age of 45, of German or kindred blood, as domestic workers.Section 4
  1. Jews are forbidden to display the Reich and national flag or the national colours.
  2. On the other hand they are permitted to display the Jewish colours. The exercise of this right is protected by the State.
Section 5
  1. A person who acts contrary to the prohibition of Section 1 will be punished with hard labour.
  2. A person who acts contrary to the prohibition of Section 2 will be punished with imprisonment or with hard labour.
  3. A person who acts contrary to the provisions of Sections 3 or 4 will be punished with imprisonment up to a year and with a fine, or with one of these penalties.
Section 6The Reich Minister of the Interior in agreement with the Deputy Führer and the Reich Minister of Justice will issue the legal and administrative regulations required for the enforcement and supplementing of this law.Section 7The law will become effective on the day after its promulgation; Section 3, however, not until 1 January 1936.

Why did the dictators and totalitarian governments gain control of Germany Italy the Soviet Union and japan?

Dictatorships/Totalitarian governments were established in Germany, Italy, the Soviet Union and Japan due to their condition after World War I. All of these countries suffered large amounts of destruction and damage and were having trouble rebuilding and the citizens of these countries were struggling. So when Dictators, such as Hitler and Mussolini, promised to get the country up and running and "restore their post-World War I glory," they received the support they needed to gain control of the countries.

Should democracy replaced by dictatorship in India?

look at china how fast it is moving ahead and compare that to India so many glitches like failure to terrorism corruption poverty foreign policy . INDIA badly needs a strong leadership the politics has done more damage to India's integrity than anything else it must be finished and replaced with the same one-party system in china .i am not supporting power in the hands of single person but a group of most prolific selfless persons who have the will and vigour to take this country to a position of a global leader

here is where the problem arises,India has some selfless and dedicated leaders but not all.even giving the power to group of people will not solve the problem. India has the second largest population in the world,how can you expect some bunch of people sitting in their air conditioned rooms will ever be able to understand the problems of the poor?

in a democratic country all people above 18 can vote but only about 60% of the population are educated and aware about the political systems so this does create an issue in elections but as more awareness is being spread we will surely overcome that barrier.plus in dictatorship u have no right of freemdom of expression.basically, India is growing and gradually it will reach the top.

On Contrary, India is one of the greatest democracies in the world and the word 'dictator' is losing its ground day by day. The elections in Pakistan have brought a set back for Musharraf, the dictator president. Another era of dictatorship of Fidel Castro comes to an end after his stepping down. Dictator Saddam Hussein is no longer to rule. So, what's the message we get here?

The growth and stability of a nation is closely related to its foreign policy, and management of internal problems like poverty, employment, economic development. The global economy is flexible today because of best foreign policies of countries across the world. In a pragmatic view, India is good at maintaining its foreign policy with the US, China and Russia. This foreign policy would no longer remain best if the nation is headed by a dictator.

Dictatorship in India might cause unrest and conflict and that will lead to destruction, as evident from world history. The dictators like - Vladimir Lenin, Mussolini, Stalin, Hitler and others caused destruction and unrest.

From Indian perspective, the dictatorship could be a curse for its developing path. However, the national epidemics like - political corruption, underdevelopment, poverty, clash over domicile etc will stay remain even in a dictator's regime.

India is a vast country and known for unity in diversity, and one dictator would not be able address the problems that arise in different parts of the country. The bottom line is that dictatorship is not always a negative aspect for the nations but, it can't be termed as a positive step in the era of globalization.

What did the fascist party promote?

The Fascist Party sought to create a strong central government that ruled by using "corporatism". Corporatism was the idea of the government taking over the economy and breaking it down into different segments that would be controlled by both the government and big businesses. So essentially, it created a government that sought to rule by mixing big government with big business.

Fascists also pushed a strong ultranationalism and militarism, believing that powerful countries with strong militaries should do whatever they want, because they can. When the Fascists ruled Italy in the 1920's-1940's, Italy attacked other countries, like Albania, Greece and Ethiopia, in an attempt to rebuild the Roman Empire.
