Hannah Arendt and Totalitarianism
Hannah Arendt, a political theorist, analyzed the nature of totalitarianism in her influential work, *The Origins of Totalitarianism*. In her book, she explores how totalitarian regimes rise through the manipulation of ideologies and the systematic suppression of individuality.
Arendt argues that totalitarianism is not just a form of government but a system that disrupts human relationships and the very structure of society. She famously stated that totalitarianism is a manifestation of evil, as it seeks to obliterate the concepts of truth, morality, and justice.
