Authoritarianism is characterized by highly concentrated and centralized power maintained by political repression and the exclusion of potential challengers. It uses political parties and mass organizations to mobilize people around the goals of the regime.t is only concerned with political power and as long as that is not contested it gives society a certain degree of liberty. Totalitarianism, on the other hand, invades private life and asphyxiates it.. Another distinction is that authoritarianism is not animated by utopian ideals in the way totalitarianism is.
Description: Zonal geraniums are bushy plants, mainly used for containers and bedding. There has been considerable breeding done, particularly for size and abundance and colors of flowers, so there is a good deal of variety. 1  Leaves: Oval leaves grow on succulent stems.2  The leaves often have zones of maroon or bronzy-green.esign Suggestions: Zonal geraniums have gotten a bad reputation by plant snobs. They've been considered garish and common. Too many of the brightly colored plants can start to look over the top, but these plants are excellent in all kinds of containers.
Geraniums, members of the family Geraniaceae, often appear in the landscape boasting lily-pad-like foliage and globe-shaped flower clusters atop tall stalks. Annual geraniums can be encouraged to sprout new flowers continuously if the old flowers are removed from the plant just before seeds start to form. New flowers are created by the plant in an attempt to spread its seed before its short life is over. Deadheading is a simple process, but requires a careful eye so that you remove nearly spent flowers before they go to seed.
