In these pages we find the crushing critique of nearly all modern reform movements...

An examination of approaches to counterinsurgency from 30 recent resolved campaigns reveals, for example, that good COIN practices tend to ’run in packs’ and that the balance of selected good and bad practices perfectly predicts the outcome of a conflict. From the PublisherInsurgency has been the most prevalent form of armed conflict since at least 1949, as well as the subject of countless historic...
