Authoritarianism, principle of blind submission to authority, as opposed to individual freedom of thought and action. In government, authoritarianism denotes any political system that concentrates power in the hands of a leader or a small elite that is not constitutionally responsible to the body of the people.

The power often changes and is ill-defined. Finally, totalitarianism is a form of government in which the leaders have unlimited and total control over people's lives.
