At the end of the First World War, democracy became the majority regime of independent nations, mainly in the winning countries. These democratic systems recognized individual rights (manifestation, opinion, beliefs, etc.), free elections, equality before the law and freedom of association. Male universal suffrage was extended and women's suffrage began to be granted.

However, there were ideological currents that questioned democracy, fundamentally nationalist currents, in the face of the opposite tendencies of the extreme left that follow the example of the Russian revolution.

By totalitarianism we understand the undemocratic political regimes that are characterized by the almighty power of the State, which infiltrates all aspects of life, both public and private. The State is strong and is based on a single party that monopolizes power, the leader of the party is revered as the leader of the nation, a leader who in some moments almost comes to worship. To remain in power the party uses terror on the population, eliminating any type of opinion other than the official one, for this purpose it usually uses the police and the army. These regimes were Fascist Italy, German Nazism and Stalin's Russia.

Which parts of this painting show the Renaissance

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

From the description and period of the painting, it seems that we're talking about "Madonna of the Chancellor Rolin" (c. 1435) by the Flemish painter Jan van Eyck (c. 1390-1441). We see the painting below. Thus the interest in the secular world is shown in the man with the book and in the setting and the landscape.

Both elements tell about an interest in studies and indicate the presence of scientific curiosity by the painter. The man in the painting is studying with a book in his lap, indicating the activity was a routine.

The setting and the landscape, by its turn, show an interest in the outside world instead of indoors -- which was the main setting of medieval art --, and it's painted in one-point perspective.
