The article is devoted to the philosophical analysis of the links between personality types and ways of mental manipulations in the context of different political regimes. The methodological background of the research is the cognitive approach. The forms of manipulation of the consciousness of the personality have been revealed depending on the characteristics of political regimes (democratic, authoritarian, totalitarian forms of the social mechanism of manipulation of the personality consciousness). It has been concluded that each of three main forms of political regimes (democratic, authoritarian and totalitarian regimes) has its specific features of mind manipulation and corresponds to a certain personality type (socially active, transitional and socially passive type respectively).
