Summary of On Tyranny - A Comprehensive Summary
Chapter 1: Do Not Obey in Advance
Anticipatory obedience is the tendency of a newly defeated population to anticipate what the new leaders want and then to adapt their behavior to this perceived requirement, often even pre-empting the plans of the new regime. After the Nazis won power in 1932, and when the communist government won the Czechoslovakian elections in 1946, the new governments may have been surprised at how quickly and easily the citizens were willing to extend their services to the new regimes. By taking quick action to harness the communities’ willingness to conform, the leaders were able to cement the change.
“Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who acts in this way is teaching power what it can do.”
