for one thing, fidel's not a dictator
he's a figurehead
he really has no power whatsoever. he's just there for decoration really. whenever things need deciding in cuba, the government either debates it and decides together or [more commonly] asks the public
fidel allows for private enterprise [provided it's not drug-trafficking {sp?} or prostitution]
fidel allows people to leave cuba as they wish [the problem with leaving cuba for america is the green card lottery - only a strict amount are granted entrance to the US]
he doesn't tend to execute criminals unless the public demands it. [this happened in the mid-90's with a group of terrorists, that was the last time an execution was carried out in cuba]

1970-now? First, Stalin did not live past 1950s so he would have to be out. Second, Good luck. Third, Augusto Pinochet (sp?) would qualify also for the time period and was recently convicted of crimes against humanity so their is fresh info about him.

I'm pretty sure Mao died in '76
would he be considered a dictator? I've never really paid that much attention to China.

If you were forced to compare leader types comparing Mao and Stalin could be fun or Enver Hoxha and Stalin...
