This might not be the right place to ask, but I'll try anyway:

I read an online paper/article on global dictatorship / totalitarianism as an existential threat a while ago, but I can't find it anymore. I've probably found it on OB / SIAI's website or something like that in the first place, but can't find it there now. Would anyone know of such an article (or any good article on the topic, for that matter)?

That was probably Bryan Caplan's chapter The Totalitarian Threat for the GCR book.

Yup, that's the one, thanks!
