Anne Applebaum is a staff writer for The Atlantic and a Pulitzer-prize winning historian. In her latest book Autocracy, Inc: The Dictators Who Want to Run the World, she examines the power structures currently running the world.
Anne says the title ‘Autocracy Inc’ describes a network of dictatorships who have nothing in common ideologically, but act like an international corporation to help keep each other in control - co-operating financially, militarily, and sharing information to work against democracy.
