32: Dobson gives accounts of authoritarian regimes’ skills, perils, and situations in Egypt, Venezuela, China and Russia. He claims to maintain a dictatorship the centralization of power is the key which also makes the regimes anachronistic. They have nothing short of similarities. Finally he has vast optimism meter out by the activists he met.
評分理論性較弱,不過作者圍繞著俄羅斯、埃及、委內瑞拉和赤縣等的領袖,相關代錶人物和典型事件做瞭大量的訪談,值得一讀。俄羅斯那位環保女士的故事很有意思,埃及軍隊纔是最大的Boss亦是新知,Technocrats一章對赤縣的分析有明黑實蜜的感覺。
評分就算不完全同意作者的預設立場也可以一看,eye-opening.

In this riveting portrait of authoritarianism in peril, acclaimed journalist William Dobson takes us inside the relentless battle between dictators and the people challenging their rule.
We are witnessing an incredible moment in the war between dictators and democracy—waves of protests are sweeping Syria and Yemen, and despots have fallen in Egypt, Tunisia, and Libya. But the Arab Spring is only the latest front in a worldwide battle between freedom and repression, a battle that also rages in a dozen other countries from Venezuela to China, Russia to Malaysia. It is a struggle that, until recently, dictators have been winning hands-down. The reason is that today’s authoritarian regimes are nothing like the frozen-in-time government of North Korea. They are ever-morphing, technologically savvy, and internationally connected, and they have replaced more brutal forms of intimidation with seemingly “free” elections and talk of human rights. Facing off against modern dictators is an unlikely army of democracy advocates—students, bloggers, environmentalists, lawyers, activists, and millionaires—who are growing increasingly savvy themselves. The result is a global game of cat-and-mouse, where the future of freedom hangs in the balance. Dobson takes us behind the scenes in both camps, and reveals how each side is honing its strategies for the war that will define our age.
