| | Authoritarianism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Authoritarian regimes typically grant wide powers to law enforcement agencies; in the extreme this leads to a police state. | | | Authoritarian regimes may or may not have a rule of law. | | | This makes it difficult to label modern states as 'democratic' or 'authoritarian'. |

| | Tod H. Mikuriya, M.D. |
| | Applying the criterion of John Stuart Mill and his view of the relationship of the individual and the state, authoritarianism IS slavery. | | | Ira Glasser, national director of the American Civil Liberties Union observed at the 1989 Drug Policy Foundation Conference in Washington, DC: | | | Authoritarianism, a contemporary term for despotism, favors authority over individual freedom and specifically relates to governance in which the individual's rights are subordinated to the interests of the group, state, or institution. |

| | SSRN-The Inherent Authoritarianism in Democratic Regimes by Richard Pildes |
| | The article concludes with studies of the Czech and German Constitutional Courts, which by contrast to the United States Supreme Court have taken a more aggressive stance towards the relationship of democracy and constitutional law in order to better resist the inevitable tendencies in all democracies towards more authoritarian control of political power. | | | This article argues that authoritarianism is an inherent structural tendency of democratic regimes. | | | This tendency is amply illustrated in the historical experience of mature democracies, such as that of the United States. |

| | Authoritarianism, briefly defined, is a form of relationship in which the establishment, protection, and exercise of power become ends in themselves. | | | "Their authoritarianism is not in specific rules, but in a more generalized abstract rule that states &; the more selfless one is the better, supported by a more abstract force, karma, to ensure that everyone gets what they deserve." | | | Control becomes authoritarian when someone with authorityby virtue of position, role, or some perceived capacityexpects to be obeyed without question, and either punishes or refuses to deal with those who do not obey. |
