Translated version
Authoritarianism
A form of government in which all power is concentrated in the hands of one person (dictator) or a small group. Characterized by the restriction of political freedoms and suppression of opposition, but, unlike totalitarianism, it does not usually aim to completely control all areas of public life.
Original version
Autoritarizmas
Valdymo forma, kurioje visa valdžia sutelkta vieno asmens (diktatoriaus) ar nedidelės grupės rankose. Būdingas politinių laisvių varžymas, opozicijos slopinimas, bet, skirtingai nei totalitarizmas, paprastai nesiekiama visiškai kontroliuoti visų visuomenės gyvenimo sričių.
