I think that you are all missing something obvious about totalitarian
architecture. I think you are over looking Albert Sheers(hope I am spelling
his name right) "Inside the Third Reich." Sheer (spelling ?) was Hitler's
personal architect He did the designing of the structures in Berlin for the
Olympics. I think that you might find some insights there. He has writting
several other books about his roles. He ended up being charged with War
Crimes because he ended up running all the war industries in Germany,

[The name is Albert Speer; see, among many other things,
http://www.designsys.com/pap/speer.html, an advert from the Princeton
Architectural Press for Leon Krier, <cite>Albert Speer:
Architecture</cite>. This book appears to contain an essay by Lars Olaf
Larsson, which "analyzes architecture under National Socialism, placing
it in the context of the trends of the 1920s and 1930s." --WM]
