Do we live under DESPOTISM?

“You can roughly locate any community in the world somewhere along a scale running all the way from democracy to despotism”, so begins this short from Encyclopaedia Britannica Films, published a year after the end of WWII

The film goes on to illustrate that despotism has two chief characteristics — restricted respect and concentrated power. "A community is low on a respect scale if common courtesy is withheld from large groups of people on account of their political attitudes; if people are rude to others because they think their wealth and position gives them that right, or because they don’t like a man’s race or his religion."

Then we're taught the two of the conditions which have historically promoted the growth of despotism — a slanted economic distribution and a strict control of the agencies of communication.
