Measuring Success in Populace and Resources Control

Abstract

A characteristic of insurgency and internal defense is the difficulty of leaders to accurately gauge progress or regression. The measurement of progress is necessary in order to provide officials with a basis for continuing, improving, or discarding the adopted strategy. By evaluating success in populace and resource control, the number of restrictive measures can be kept to a minimum; and timely changes and the program can be made to cope with variations in the levels of insurgent activity.
