Totalitarianism: The Basics is an easy to read introduction into
the main concepts, ideologies, and regimes associated with
totalitarianism. Starting with an overview of how scholars have
attempted to define totalitarianism, Phillip W. Gray begins with an
examination of the various types of terms used, helping the reader
think about how these terms do - and do not - apply to different
ideologies and governments. Easily accessible language and the use
of numerous examples aids readers in seeing the connections between
certain types of ideologies and some forms of
organization/movements in their relation to historically well-known
totalitarian regimes. Gray concludes with the tools necessary to
think through how to distinguish between an actual (or potential)
totalitarian system and regimes that, while oppressive or
authoritarian, would not be totalitarian in nature. A rich
bibliography containing additional readings bookend the text.
Totalitarianism: The Basics offers an essential introduction for
students from all backgrounds seeking to understand totalitarianism
and for general readers with an interest in political ideologies
and extremism. For those knowledgeable in this field, it adds
conceptual relevance and the varieties of ways of thinking about
the term.
