Dictatorship

Thursday 17 February 2011

A Dictatorship is a system where people's opinion is not taken into account. The people live in a repressive ambience and only the dictators have the right to have an opinion, their will must be respected.

Generally dictatorships are associated with cases of political corruption and large massacres where they can reach millions of deads.

Throughout history there have been various types of dictatorships: from the Romans who elected a dictator to rule them during times of crisis, to the most recent that may be the left (e.g. Stalin) or right (e.g. Hitler). One is more focused on the nationalization of property values of the country and the other is focused in race instead the individual.
