Abstract
Throughout the twentieth century the concept of totalitarianism has functioned on political, moral, religious and theoretical level. Designating regimes that maintain themselves in political power by means of propaganda, state-controlled media and economy and restriction of free speech, totalitarianism extensively uses terror tactics.terrorism is political violence performed by non-State actors. By conveying a distorted ideology, terrorism orders for massive destruction of institutions, foundations and national symbols representing thoughts and ideas which do not comply with common sense.This paper investigates the relationship between totalitarianism and terrorism in the context of political theory. Their fundamental relationship is reflected on their roots. terrorism |evolves as a result of social inequalities, religious conflicts and a rebellious intelligentsia, while similarly, totalitarianism takes advantage of social inequalities and offers a sense of individual existence to deprived people, who adhered to this ideology. By investigating this relationship in the context of political theory, the paper identifies similarities between totalitarianism and terrorism in the use of terror tactics, obsession with control, relation to religion and the use of advanced technology
