Feb 28 2011: i don't think so...firstly because dictatorship is by nature a bully with a fancy tag...he is someone who believes that might is right and uses force to enforce his will on the weak. It is a law of nature that sooner or later the strong always overpowers the weak. So as long as that flaw remains in human nature, of believing that one is right and others are wrong and that everyone else must conform to our thinking or will, there will be dictators.
Coming to the topic of the revolutions, weren't most dictators a by-product of revolutions which had run out of steam and were unable to create a democratic state forcing a military takeover of the state.
