Important terms/concept

A. Dictatorship

In a dictatorship, a single person, a dictator, has absolute power over the state. It is not

necessarily ruled by a theology or belief. It is an authoritarian form of government where
one person is in charge of enforcing and enacting the law. Aspects often include military
organizational backing, unfair elections (if any) and various human rights violations. A
dictator does not usually inherit their power like a monarch does; they either seize control
of the state by force or through (usually unfair) elections. Dictators are not held
accountable for their actions and thus are free to do as they please, including limiting
citizens’ rights.
   B. Oligarchy
  Oligarchies are governments in which a collection of individuals rules over a nation. A
specific set of qualities, such as wealth, heredity, and race, are used to give a small group
of people power. Oligarchies often have authoritative rulers and an absence of democratic
practices or individual rights.

C. Mobocracy
A political system in which a mob is the source of control; government by the masses.
Webster Dictionary defines mobocracy as a condition in which the lower classes of a
nation control public affairs without respect to law, precedents, or vested rights. The term
“mobocracy” has been in use since the 18th century, often used as a pejorative
description of democracy. It is sometimes used to describe anarchism, but it’s debatable
whether mobocracy is a form of anarchy as one group is seen to legitimately rule over
others by whim.
D. Theocracy
A theocracy is a government operated under divine rule or the pretense of divine rule.
The origin of the word "theocracy" is from the 17th century from the Greek
word theokratia. Theo is Greek for "god," and cracy means "government."
In practice, the term refers to a government operated by religious authorities who
claim unlimited power in the name of God or supernatural forces. Many government
leaders, including some in the U.S., invoke God, and claim to be inspired by God or to
obey the will of God. This does not make a government a theocracy, at least in practice
and by itself. A government is a theocracy when its lawmakers believe that leaders are
governed by the will of God and laws are written and enforced that are predicated on this
belief.
E. Authoritarian (ism)
Authoritarianism is a theory and a system of government customarily linked with
dictatorship, in contrast to democracy. It is a principle based on obedience to authority
and opposes autonomy of individuals in thought and action. As a form of government,
authoritarianism concentrates power in a leader or in a small elite not constitutionally
accountable to the people. Unlike totalitarian systems, authoritarian governments usually
lack a highly developed ideology. 
F. Totalitarian (ism)
Totalitarianism is an authoritarian form of government in which the ruling party
recognizes no limitations whatsoever on its power, including in its citizens' lives or
rights. A single figure often holds power and maintains authority through widespread
surveillance, control over mass media, intimidating demonstrations of paramilitary or
police power, and suppression of protest, activism, or political opposition.
G. Fascism 
Fascism  is a governmental system led by a dictator having complete power, forcibly
suppressing opposition and criticism, regimenting all industry, commerce, etc., and emphasizing
an aggressive nationalism and often racism.
