P/P/15. To what extent was Mussolini's Fascist regime 'Totalitarian?'

This paper attempts to determine the extent to which the Fascist regime was built upon, what Mussolini himself defines as; "everything within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state". In order to evaluate the extent of Fascist totalitarianism, the following work will attempt to use as a comparison, the equally debated totalitarian regimes of Hitler's Germany and Stalin's Russia.
