Totalitarian Advantages
- makes decisions quickly- Napoleonic ideals of “Order, Efficiency and Security”
Disadvantages- sacrificing of civil natural rights (no big deal!)- no representation / elected officials- minorities have no protection- mass censorship- everything is “state-operated”- no lab or unions or strikes usually
Democratic Advantages
- elections / representation in politics- natural rights protected- freedom of speech and right to political dissent (massive)- governed by “the general will of the people”
Disadvantages- should majority rules always rule?- can making decisions slower be an advantage?
