Book Review: Dictators’ endgames by Croissant, A., Eschenauer-Engler, T., & Kuehn, D. - Christoph Harig, 2026

My review of 'Dictators' Endgames' by Croissant/Eschenauer-Engler/Kuehn is now out in @afssage.bsky.social

The book examines the behaviour of military leaders when a dictator’s political survival depends on their support and is well worth the read
