After the Dictators


A number of questions stem after an authoritarian regime falls. Mainly, what is to be done with the dictator. Will he or she be charged in an international court? Will he or she escape and live a cushy lifestyle in another country for the rest of their life, evading capture? Will he or she die peacefully in their bed? Or will he or she be killed ouright?
 
Inspired by Gaddafi's violent death, this BBC documentary, "After the Dictators" looks at what situation is most beneficial for the society to successfully move on in the post-authoritarian times and how it shapes the country's recovery.
