Answer:
Authoritarian rule can be or cannot be legitimate because existence of pure legitimacy is not possible
Explanation:
The legitimacy represents outspoken public loyalty and conformist mentality of a individual /group/organization which shapes the repressive administrative machinery to be of a high developed nature. This is not possible in authoritarian regimes which leverage to facilitate certain sects of the society like elite group.
However, in current time pure legitimacy is also not possible hence the concept of authoritative legitimacy is arising.
It's important that we know where and how we came to be. For example we wouldn't really understand why you're a certain religion if we didn't know who settled the land and what happened. Not only that, but also a lot of things happened back then, a civil war, WWI and WWII, the Cold war, war of 1812, that made things what it is present day. Also history makes sure that we can honor people for freedom, such as Abe Lincoln who freed slaves. The point I'm making here is that history is a way to remember important events that have effected many things and many places and without keeping track of history (for example if we didn't keep track of the Constitution) we wouldn't have the somewhat peaceful society of today.
