Casebook on Insurgency and Revolutionary Warfare: 23 Summary Accounts

Abstract

The U.S. Army's concern with revolutions derives from two sources: First, the Army is a participant, through the many mutual security pacts between the United States and other countries, in the total United States effort to bring about change. Wisdom in the application of military means in the growth and development of nations is certainly to be desired. Second, the Army may, despite our best national efforts, have to cope directly, or through assistance and advice, indirectly, with revolutionary actions. It need not be emphasized that here again a better understanding of the processes of revolution might well be of critical significance.
