Abstract:
In recent decades, the evolvement of authoritarian regimes in different countries of the world has become a noticeable trend. This process raises questions about the impact of these regimes on international relations, democratic values, human rights, and the international order as a whole. It is important to note that authoritarian political regimes have a wide range of variations, from totalitarian systems, where power is completely controlled by one person or group, to milder forms, where the authority of power is based on other factors, such as military power or legitimacy. The subject of research in the article are political regimes. The aim is to investigate the typology and characteristics of authoritarian political regimes. The article uses general scientific methods: historical analysis and research to illustrate examples of authoritarian regimes. This allows us to find out the reasons for the emergence and evolution of authoritarianism, as well as to understand its influence on society and politics. The general scientific approach has proved itself useful in systematic researching and analyzing the typology and characteristics of authoritarian political regimes, highlighting a comprehensive understanding of this complex problem. The main characteristics of authoritarian political regimes are revealed; the specifics of functioning of authoritarian regimes and their impact on society are allocated. An analysis of different types of authoritarian political regimes has been carried out, which helped to a better understanding of the diversity of authoritarianism; also features of the latter have been determined. As a result of the study, conclusions are drawn as follows: a estimated typology of authoritarian regimes is important for identifying potential challenges and dangers that they can create for democracy, human rights, and stability in society. This can be helpful for politicians, researchers and actors of international relations in developing some effective strategies for preserving democratic values and countering authoritarianism. The study of authoritarian political regimes points to the need to strengthen international efforts to promote democracy, protect human rights, and promote democratic values. International cooperation and support can play an important role in spreading democratic values along with strengthening resistance against authoritarianism.

Keywords: authoritarianism, authoritarian political regime, political rule, democracy, democratic values.
