Koller, Stanisław2022-12-122022-12-122003Polonia Sacra, 2003, R. 7 (25), Nr 12 (56), s. 49-70.1428-5673http://theo-logos.pl/xmlui/handle/123456789/2091Throughout history there have appeared various political systems. They all had their advantages and disadvantages depending on numerous factors which determined them. At the beginning of the 20th century in Europe two totalitarian systems came into being: fascism and communism. They were both put into effect and entailed the death of millions of victims. In theory, totalitarianism assumed curtailing of man's freedom in order to achieve “noble” ideas. In reality, it turned out that each totalitarianism is a state of permanent war and ends in genocide. John Paul II joins the voice of the most important thinkers warning us of new forms of totalitarianism, hidden in the conceptions on man's freedom. Totalitarianism can be realised in every political system since it is a mystery lurking in man.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/wojnatotalitaryzmfilozofiawładzahistoriaideologiareżimKatolicka Nauka SpołecznaBibliaPismo ŚwięteStary TestamentNowy TestamentJan Paweł IIKarol WojtyłapapieżenauczaniechrześcijaństwowarphilosophyauthorityhistoryideologyregimeBibleOld TestamentNew TestamentJohn Paul IIpopesteachingChristianitynauczanie społeczne KościołaclergypriesthoodduchowieństwokapłaniArticle
