I wouldn't quite say that. What has happened more is that most of the development-minded dictatorships have already fallen to their own devices, like Suharto in Indonesia. Syria was interested in modernization, as was Egypt and so, to a point, is Iran. Vietnam and Cuba are working to improve conditions. North Korea, Myanmar, and Laos are capable only of keeping things in stasis, while the ones in Africa tend to be kleptocracies only interested in their own aggrandizement rather than the good of the people
