"For my book 'Dictators. An Arab History' I spent two years trying to look inside the heads of Arab dictators like Gaddafi, Hussein, Nasser. I discovered that these leaders were not psychopaths at all, but sophisticated power artists who used all kinds of tricks to stay in power. With big promises and small rewards, they managed to bind ordinary people to them. In my lecture 'Dictators', I show what deep wounds dictators have inflicted on the Arab world. "
