"I don’t necessarily see Idi Amin as an analogue for Donald Trump or any other of the many demagogues who now inflict themselves on our public stage. I do think, though, that in Amin’s successful efforts to renovate Ugandans’ sense of place and time, in his use of new media to shape people’s apprehensions of where they stood in history, and in his efforts to instrumentalise people’s resentment against racial and ethnic outsiders, there are lessons for us about how demagoguery works in our own place and time."
