📗 Mélanie Toulhoat's doctoral thesis led to the book "Rire de la dictature, rire sous la dictature. Brésil (1964-1982)", published by Presses Sorbonne Nouvelle.
🇧🇷 This book reveals the fundamental role of graphic humour and satire in shaping the struggles, as well as asserting the differences and tensions, of democratic opposition movements in #Brazil.
At the center of the book is a network (not an axis, alliance or bloc) of dictatorships: Russia, China, Iran, Venezuela, Syria, Cuba, Belarus, Myanmar, Zimbabwe, North Korea plus a dozen-odd others who are seeking to change the international system in order to keep their regimes in power and to preserve their leaders’ wealth.
