Respuesta :

answer is "Give powerful and persuasive speeches"

Answer:   Give powerful and persuasive speeches

Explanation:  The rise of a dictator such as Mussolini must, first of all, be viewed in the context of the socioeconomic situation at the time. Namely, in the period between two wars, during the great depression and lack of jobs, poor economic situations, dictators who are calling for the improvement of such a state and the renewal of the national pride and historical values, easily come to power. The power of the dictator is built on the cult of personality, which with his performance and convincing speeches represents a "rescuer" of the nation and the national economy. The truth is that such dictators are setting up a national economy that predates the creation of jobs for people, but in order to reach that position, the dictators must convince people that they will save the nation, to revive the economy, etc. Poor masses are a perfect ground for such performances and convincing speeches.
