The Establishment of Dictatorships

Description

Why were the years between the two world wars marked by some of the most brutal and politically radical dictatorships in history? This program examines the economic, political, and social climate in the aftermath of World War I, which gave rise to a number of dictatorships whose methods of acquiring and maintaining power were horribly similar despite differing ideologies. It is an excellent resource for students of modern world history and geopolitics.
