Totalitarianism

One person rules, makes/changes the laws, and does what he wants. There are no elections or voting by the people.

German in the its golden years (Stresemen's Recovery) "1924-29" had adopted many diffrent schemes such as that involved borrowing money from America, but when the wall street crash of 1929 took place America needed all it money back which plunged German into a Depression, there were no jobs, there was no money and people were desperate for food. Things were looking very bad for Germany and its people, when after his spell in prison and writting his book "Mein Kampf" Hitler with the Nazi party came back and shone a light of hope for the people. He had a new tac-tic, insted of using extreme violence like he did before he decides to use a more polictical approach but still keeping most of the parties aims, he offered free food, More jobs and promised a better life for all Germans. This enouraged the German people to vote for the Nazi party, Also usally in time of extreme circumstances people vote for extreme parties because although radical styles are used they usually pay off.

Strengths:

People are more civilized.

People are organized and strict.

Weaknesses:

Not much freedom: of speech and actions.

People are found guilty prior to going before the courts.

Elections are not fair. (one party to vote for)

Sometimes no elections. (Dictator appoints himself)

He ruled with absolute authority.
He isn't. He is dead.

Usually as history will tell us, is by implying fear on it's people, through an attack on the country which would allow the government to in act laws to restrict some of our civil liberties, and the excuse is usually to ''protect us''. Then little by little as rights are taken away they will be in full control of the people and we will have no hear say.

Total control of the military. Total control over means of communication (newspapers, Propaganda, etc.). Control over the economy. Police control with the use of terror as a control tactic.

The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (commonly known as North Korea) is officially a single-party military dictating Juche republic, which is incorrectly colloquiallized with totalitarianism and communism, even though most Western and European media recognize the nation as a totalitarian state.

North Korean dictatorship began in its early stages after the defeat of Japan in World War II, which ended its 35-year hold on Korea as a colony. The removal of Japanese presence allowed the United States and the Soviet Union to temporarily hold control of parts of Korea. The United States occupied the south and the Soviet Union occupied the north. An agreement was made to make the 38th parallel the dividing point.

With mistrust growing rapidly between the United States and the Soviet Union, tensions also appeared between the Koreans. In 1947, the United States presented the problem to the United Nations, who decided to split Korea into North Korea and South Korea at the 38th parallel.

At this point, the Soviet Union still held parental control over North Korea. The North Korean political system was heavily influenced by the Soviet presence and its communist government. In 1948, the Soviet Union officially withdrew from North Korea.

Kim Il-sung, a Korean communist supporter, officially founded North Korea the same year the Soviet Union withdrew and led the nation as the Prime Minister from 1948 until 1972, when the Socialist Constitution of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea was written.

During the 1950s, Kim Il-sung was seen as an orthodox communist leader and openly praised Stalin and Soviet Communism. However, he sided with the People's Republic of China during the Sino-Soviet split, opposing the reforms brought by Nikita Khrushchev, whom he believed was acting in opposition to communism.

Kim Il-sung soon distanced himself from Stalin and the Soviet Union and began reforming North Korea to his own tastes. This began the North Korean totalitarian government that is recognized today.

After Kim Il-sung died on July 8, 1994 he was given the title of "Eternal President of the Republic". The position of President remains exclusively to Kim Il-sung incumbent. His son, Kim Jong-il, is the de facto head of North Korea and rules with a miltary dictatorship.

The government has complete controll over every aspect of the lives of the citizens

In a totalitarian state all economic activity is controlled by the state. It is usually led by a dictator, all production of foods and goods are controlled by the state, the government controls all media so there is no freedom of press, and a person is absolutely not allowed to speak out about the government.

The centralization of government and the advent of modern technologies (recording, transport, and communications) made modern totalitarianism much more effectively intrusive in individuals' lives. Repressive authoritarian governmental laws could mechanically and effectively enforced in ways unimaginable to earlier tyrants.

Basically, totalitarianism created a quick and easy way to get back onto the international table. Add to that the fact that its state-controlled economy made it quick to recover, and it became very popular. Crime, of course, was extremely lowered, because people were given jobs if they weren't working (Poverty caused by unemployment is a major factor in crime) and the punishments for doing so were raised significantly.

More esoterically, I think the idea that in a totalitarian country, it was easy to imagine you were one of millions and that you would never stand alone. You never needed to make political decisions, and indeed everyone "agreed" with you, because it was illegal to say otherwise.

of course, everyone who's watched V for Vendetta knows why totalitarianism is bad, even though the regime that arose in that situation lied to get its power.

Hitler - totalitarian, authoritarian, nationalist. Stalin - totalitarian, authoritarian.

Tyranny is the rule by a single authoritative person. Tyrants were appointed in some Greek city-states, including Athens, by popular assent to replace aristocrats who ruled a city-state for their own benefit. However, the tyrant had to have a bodyguard to protect him from attempts by the aristocracy to assassinate him, and to pay the bodyguard he had to levy a tax, which made him less popular. When people's memories of how bad it had been under the aristocracy faded, they would get rid of the tyrant and either revert to the aristocrats or get the idea of a democracy in which they themselves held power.

It means that people can only be taken over by a tyrant if they don't stand up for themselves. Some people are only powerful because no one has dared to challenge them.
