Answers:
Assuming your goal is personal and not academic enlightenment, I can tell you that each of these topics involves the struggle for human dignity in the 20th century. Most of the named topics (Slobodan, Idi et al) were dictators; ruthless as they come. The solidarity movement involved Lech Walesa, a former trade union and human rights activist in Poland. Apartheid involved state sanctioned discrimination of the worst kind in South Africa.

Each of these topics can be reviewed in better detail on wikipedia. Good luck with your search for truth and wisdom.
