Comparing Regimes: Critical Reading of Memoirs and Experiences from Totalitarian Regimes

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Can you imagine living in a totalitarian country? Learners will read several primary source memoirs to gain a deeper understanding of what life is like under a controlled government. They'll discuss each piece in pairs, research totalitarian regimes, and write an essay which describes what it would feel like to live without freedom.
