This video is about Hannah Arendt's political philosophy book The Origins of Totalitarianism, in which she defines totalitarianism and explains how it is rooted in the structures of antisemitism and global imperialism. For Arendt, totalitarianism goes beyond dictatorship, and it eliminates freedom to the point where individual actions (or inactions) become irrelevant in determining whether or not an individual is subjected to state violence.
