Description

Explore the origins of state control in The Proto-totalitarian State by Dmitry Shlapentokh. This scholarly work challenges the common belief that totalitarian rule stems solely from specific ideologies. Instead, the text examines how brutal forms of state control often emerge as a means to maintain basic social order. Shlapentokh investigates the roots of totalitarian and semi-totalitarian regimes, suggesting they are driven by a deep-seated fear of disorder that affects both rulers and society. While ideology remains a factor in many regimes, this volume provides a different perspective on why states seek complete control over social, cultural, and political institutions. It is an essential read for students and researchers interested in the history of fascism, political science, and the mechanisms of absolutist regimes.
