Of the dictatorship

This album explains in a clear and powerful way, with the help of funny and lively illustrations, the mechanisms of a dictatorial regime. In a democracy, the people decide. Unfortunately, this is not the case everywhere. In some countries, one person concentrates all power and makes decisions against the majority. The dictator rules by fear: those who do not obey him are punished. There is no freedom: it is forbidden to think anything other than what the dictator thinks. There is no more equality: the dictator defends the interests of some, to the detriment of others. At an age where you are beginning to develop your critical mind, this album highlights the importance of thinking for yourself: it's not because someone claims to be the biggest, the most beautiful, the smartest , that this is true. No one has the right to decide for others, everyone is free to express their opinions and disagreements to finally say "no to dictatorship" and "yes to freedom"! *** The collection “Books for today and tomorrow” This book is part of a series of four titles originally published between 1977 and 1978 in Spain, two years after the end of the Franco dictatorship.
