This is the first major work to be published which analyses the
phenomenon of revolutions based on a Maoist model, namely Thailand,
the Philippines, Peru and Sri Lanka. Unlike the Vietnamese
Communists, however, all these insurgencies modelled on Mao have
failed, having been successfully contained by their governments.
The question is how did the world's strongest power - America -
fail where Third World governments have succeeded? The author seeks
to provide the answers in order to learn not only about the Maoist
'people's war' and counter-insurgency, but also to identify the
factors which contribute to a revolution.
