Description

This books tells the story of countries torn by armed insurgences & clarifies the causes of each conflict. It provides the broad viewpoint necessary for understanding them in the historical terms of guerrilla warfare. With the collapse of the Soviet Union, the end of the Cold War & a highly unstable new world order, this brand of rebellion has never been more powerful & potentially disruptive. As the author states in his Foreword: For a number of reasons guerrilla warfare has evolved into an ideal instrument for the realization of social-political-economic aspirations of underprivileged peoples.
