520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
Summary, etc. | Study of the widespread existence of conflicts waged by amateurs rather than the organised armed forces of states. Arges that some may not consider insurgency as war in the conventional sense yet it uses force to achieve its ends and in doing so insurgents may achieve victory even if they loose most of the battles. Considers such issues as leadership, mobilization, intelligence, funding, training, and develops a theory of global insurgency. |
