794: Alastair Smith | The Dictator's Handbook Part One

Alastair Smith is the Bernhardt Denmark Chair of International Relations at New York University, professor of political science in the Wilf Family Department of Politics, and co-author (with Bruce Bueno de Mesquita) of The Dictator's Handbook: Why Bad Behavior is Almost Always Good Politics. [This is part one of a two-part episode. Please check back later in the week for part two!]

What We Discuss with Alastair Smith:

Why do the majority of people living under dictatorships suffer in impoverished squalor, and how does foreign aid empower these dictators rather than help the general populace?
Why do dictators consistently hate freedom, the media, and seemingly their own citizens?
Why does bad behavior so often make for good politics — even in the most progressive nations?
