About this document
Understanding Totalitarianism Explained by Ayush Garg is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Totalitarianism describes a political system where the state holds total authority over society and seeks to control all public and private aspects of life. The concept was first developed in the 1920s by Italian fascists to describe their system of government. During the Cold War, Western nations used the term in anti-communist political discourse to highlight perceived similarities between Nazi/Fascist states and Soviet Communist states.
