This is an automatically translated description

There are no tyrants who cannot be removed by force, and moreover, tyranny makes it possible to kill a tyrant not only de facto but also de jure. Starting with ancient Greece, the Western political and legal tradition has been thinking about the circumstances that make it possible to kill a tyrant legally. Each era has contributed to this question through passionate debates, heated polemics, and explosive (and not only figuratively speaking) events. The analysis presented in the book traces the topic of tyranny and tyranny from antiquity to 2021, leaving the last pages with a question mark. In the last chapter, we see some familiar names from the news: Putin, Xi Jinping, Erdogan, Orban, Kim Jong-un...

By the very fact of their existence, today's tyrants give rise to tomorrow's tyrant fighters. In 2021, the author did not know that Ukrainians would have to act as tyrant-fighters not only against a single tyrant, but also against an entire empire built on tyrannical power. Why? Because Sic semper tyrannis! There are no tyrants who cannot be removed by force, and moreover, tyranny makes it possible to kill a tyrant not only de facto but also de jure.
