Dictatorships

This title addresses dictatorships worldwide, examining whether dictatorships can be a good form of government; whether certain dictatorships are becoming democracies; whether certain democracies are becoming dictatorships; and what the future might hold for Middle East governments. The viewpoints are selected from a wide range of highly respected and often hard-to-find sources and publications. By choosing from such diverse sources and including both popular and unpopular views, the OPPOSING VIEWPOINTS editorial team has adhered to its commitment to editorial objectivity. Readers are exposed to many sides of a debate, which promotes issue awareness as well as critical thinking.
