Undemocratic regimes are political systems where power is concentrated in the hands of a single ruler or a small group of individuals who have not been chosen through a free and fair electoral process. These regimes often lack transparency, accountability, and respect for the rule of law. Citizen participation, political pluralism, and protection of civil liberties and human rights are typically limited or nonexistent. Common features include censorship, propaganda, suppression of dissent, and the use of state apparatus to control various aspects of public and private life. Such regimes can vary in their degree of authoritarianism, from outright totalitarian states to more subtle forms of autocratic governance.
