Examines theories and applications of revolutionary warfare in an era of reactionary, jihadist wars. Explores how in particular the governments of Vietnam (1955-63), Algeria (1945-62) and Nicaragua (1967-79) unintentionally empowered revolutionary movements leading to the demise of the governments.
