It begins with the rise of anti-Semitism in Central and Western Europe in the 1800s and continues with an examination of European colonial imperialism from 1884 to the outbreak of World War I. The final section discusses the institutions and operations of totalitarian movements, focusing on the two genuine forms of totalitarian government in our times--Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia. Here Arendt discusses the transformation of classes into masses, the role of propaganda in dealing with the nontotalitarian world, and the use of terror, essential to this form of government. In a brilliant concluding chapter Arendt analyzes the nature of isolation and loneliness as preconditions for total domination. -- Back cover. 7aTotalitarianism.2BUEsh 7aImperialism.2BUEsh 7aAntisemitism.2BUEsh  bMASPPSScSeptember2019  2ddccBB  00102ddc40708BaccahaMAINbMAINc1STd2019-09-23ePurchaseg490.00l2m6o321.9 AREp000048077r2025-07-15 00:00:00s2021-02-10v612.50yBB
