[Star Wars] What are the differences between the ideologies of Tarkin and Thrawn?

With there being both a Tarkin and Thrawn novel (Tarkin already out, Thrawn soon coming), and I was wondering what the major differences between their ideologies was.

Thanks :)

Well for the new canon we don't quite know what differences in their styles are.  We'll see as *Star Wars: Rebels* progresses and Thrawn's novel comes out.

In Legends, Thrawn advocated for a...softer touch than the Tarkin Doctrine.  He was still a believer in order/security over civil liberties and ruling through military might, but he was generally more keen about minimizing collateral damage when putting down dissent.  Thrawn also liked to really milk the most out of a bad situation, lemonade out of lemons.
