Children of Dictators

Back Cover Text (From the Promotional Bulletin)

Svetlana, Edda, Carmen, Bashar, Li Na and others... Sound familiar?
In order to understand the importance of these names, which seem ordinary at first glance, we need to know who their fathers were: Stalin, Mussolini, Franco, Hafez Assad, Mao...
They are the children of the dictators who left their mark on the 20th century.

Some of them became reluctant actors of a fate in which they had no say, and some were victims of the same lust for power and power as their fathers. But without exception, all of them were children who had to sacrifice their innocence for the sake of the continuity of a regime that promised oppression, unhappiness and tears.
What about others? Ceausescu, Gaddafi, Duvalier, Hosni Mubarak, Saddam Hussein, Mobutu, Kim Il-sung, Bokassa, Pinochet, Castro, Lukashenko, Reza Pahlavi.

Prepared by a team of investigative journalists and historians under the direction of Jean-Christophe Brisard and Claude Quétel, Children of Dictators presents a selection of recent historical figures who started out with good intentions and then went astray for the sake of power.
