How to Topple a Dictator
Dictatorships and “strong man” leadership is on the rise across the globe. In addition, and particularly in the West, entrenched special interests are very prominent. Indeed, it appears that democracy is in retreat.
How can dictators, with their stranglehold on power through military force, control of media and financial clout be toppled? How can entrenched special interests be overcome? In fact, how can any kind of civic change happen ? be that improvements with your local rubbish collection, or overcoming grand corruption? Meet Srdja Popovic.
Srdja is a political activist from Serbia and one of the founders of the Otpor! (“resistance”) movement in the country in the 1990s. Otpor helped topple then dictator Slobodan Milosevic in 2000 through its strategies of non-violent resistance.
Our latest podcast episode is a fascinating conversation with Srdja on how to use non-violent tactics to topple dictators.
