    In this course, we will compare everyday life in the inter-war dictatorships of the Stalinist Soviet Union, Nazi Germany, and Fascist Italy. We will look at the ways in which each regime impacted daily life through the organization of mass leisure, the regulation of family life (especially the lives of women and children), policing of social activities, and other initiatives. We will also see what can be learned about ordinary people's attitudes toward these regimes and resistance to them. We will also seek to define the term "totalitarianism" and ask whether it should be applied to some or all of these regimes. Staff/ Three credits
