Was heißt und zu welchem Ende betreibt man Totalitarismusforschung?

Abstract

"In his article, originally intended for internal discussion, the author speaks out in favor of research on totalitarianism, which is orientated toward practical political questions. He pleads for research on how to avoid totalitarianism, which involves reflections on totalitarian dangers to the democratic constitutional state. The expounded understanding of research on totalitarianism requires interdisciplinary exchange to attain its maximum potential." (author's abstract)
