Will there ever be a return to totalitarianism in major nations,

Totalitarism is always a posibility,but that kind of regime,as you look throuhh history only comes from harsh conditions

totalitarianism, if looked at simplistically is the amassing of great power in the hands of a few or of a single person.
In this sense many of us in the western world live partially under totalitarian regimes, like working in a corporations that has a pyramid like control scheme, i.e. a totalitarian one.

Political regimes are ways of managing people and order them through different means.
Democracy allows "the people" to vent frustrations and make a stand in critical moments when something very displeaing is happening and yet western democracy is the result of the nation and as individual nations lose hegemony and instead insternational groups gain more power people might find themselves living next to people with whom they are in stark opposition. This lose of cultural homogeneity, that maintained by a strong relatively closed off state, might lead countries towards a strong vertical structure that uses a lot of force to keep these different groups from escalating tensions between one another.
So, a strong state whos job it is to forcfully seperate and allow different groups to coexist despite having radically different views of life and having affiliations with other people across borders.
Seems to me this is happening already.
The issue is that we are not really beyond countries. Under what principles can bigger structures be created and maintained by force? Meaning managment bodies that are above countires that have the power to persuade people into giving them authoritatie power?

Totalitarianism is a meme for twelve years olds who've just discovered 1984
