Despot Watch

The New Republic's delightful Today in Despotism fills us in on what is happening Burma, Libya, Syria, Belarus and N. Korea. Anyone interested in human rights and democracy should make it a point to check in regularly. openDemocracy lets us know what is going on in Zimbawe by republishing four short (incredibly depressing) articles giving us a sense of the misery that Mugabe is bringing to his country.
