Principles of Insurgency and Counterinsurgency, and Support in Counterinsurgency to a Developing Nation

Beneath a nuclear umbrella insurgency has proliferated amongst the developing nations of the world. Insurgency if unchecked poses a threat to the stability of the world. To maintain stability, developed nations might have to support developing nations to combat insurgency. This support should be based upon common principles of insurgency, counterinsurgency and counterinsurgency support to the host nation. Using the principles of revolutionary warfare evolved by the British Staff College, Camberley, the author has examined the validity of those principles.
