Waar gaat het over?

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, as democratic movements swept across the globe, certain dictatorial regimes held fast against this historic tide. As much of Eastern Europe emerged after decades of communist rule, dictators in China, Vietnam, North Korea, Cuba, Syria, Iraq, Libya and Iran maintain a firm grasp on their power.
