Political Context Behind Successful Revolutionary Movements Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Revolutionary warfare is a struggle for political power over some defined geographic area regardless of the backdrop.

With this in mind, winning the hearts and minds of the population is not necessarily an objective of the insurgents (as the current wars with Islamic extremists adduce).

This book also examines how governments can squander their advantages vis-a-vis insurgents.

Accordingly, the author applies this framework to three case studies: Vietnam (1955-63), Algeria (1945-62), and Nicaragua (1967-79) to gain a greater appreciation of how government pathologies, and not insurgent strategy, are the major determinant of insurgent success.
