How tyrants fall

Marcel Dirsus

Strongmen are rising. Democracies are faltering. How does tyranny end? Tyrants project invincibility, but all of them fall. This is because they face critical weaknesses that can form a fatal trap. Whether it's their inner circle turning against them or resentment of elites in the military, the masses alienated by cronyism or revolutionaries plotting in exile, tyrants always have more enemies than friends. And when they fall tyrants don't quietly retire - they face exile, prison or death. But understanding dictators isn't enough. 'How Tyrants Fall' is the gripping, deeply researched blueprint for how to bring them down.
