This is an analysis of the phenomenon of revolutions based on the Maoist Mode, 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. How did the world's strongest power - America - fail where Third World governments have succeeded? The author seeks to provide the answer 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.
