To determine the goal of the research by revealing: The foundations of totalitarianism 2 - Totalitarian practices in contemporary formation. Then comes the importance of the research, which was determined by the fact that it was an epistemological reading of the concept of totalitarianism as one of the strategies and techniques of power in controlling culture and art, which allows a broader understanding of art products.
