The Origins of Tyranny is the first volume in a collection of essays by Uthman A. Shodipe-Dosunmu. Tyranny is a root word of the Latin Tyrannia, basically the rule of a Tyrant or Despot.
These essays, written over thirty years ago, are assertive and vivid explorations about the destruction of a society when a docile, indifferent people bend beneath the yoke of a despotic power. It is a riveting articulation about the imbalance of a caudillo, the one who wields the cudgel, with unchallenged arbitrating largeness.
The author brings to bear upon each topic his instinctive grasp of philosophy, his knowledge of literature and classical antiquity and his bias for the Cultural and Intellectual History of Europe 18th Century. He is a graduate of the University of California, Los Angeles.
The ringing leit motif of these essays is for the society to rouse itself in fearless grapple against those who will shackle their freedom and reduce them to chattels in the dust. A society is better enhanced in growth and liberty when plurality of voices contest in contributory pacific measures with an eventual arrival in compromise for the greater good of all.
