Synopsis
Dictatorships throughout the twentieth century - including Mussolini's Italy, the Third Reich, the Soviet Union, Poland, and East Germany - held elections. But were they more than rituals of participation without the slightest effect on the distribution of power? Why did political regimes radically opposed to liberal democracy feel the need to imitate their enemies? Offering significant insights into totalitarian state governance, "Voting for Hitler and Stalin" thoroughly investigates the remarkable, paradoxical phenomenon of dictatorial elections, revealing the many ways they transcended mere propaganda.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - In vielen Diktaturen - im nationalsozialistischen Deutschland ebenso wie in der Sowjetunion - wurden regelmäßig Wahlen und Referenden abgehalten. Solche scheindemokratischen Wahlen waren nicht nur Mittel der Propaganda. Sie hatten, so zeigen die Beiträge dieses Bandes, durchaus eine Bedeutung für die Funktionsweise diktatorischer Herrschaft im 20. Jahrhundert. Seller Inventory # 9783593394893
