"The book explores the logic of struggle between radical movements and incumbent regimes, and develops a general theory of strategy in protests, uprisings and rebellions. The theory provides a rigorous framework for calculating the effectiveness of alternative strategies in a broad class of political situations, and explains how choices among these alternatives are constrained by attributes of dissident leaders and their organizations. The author applies his reasoning to a variety of fundamental problems in radical politics, including dilemmas associated with compromise, repression, and terrorism and the dynamics of factional disputes in revolutionary movements. He then confronts the deductions of his formal theory with evidence from the Marxist tradition of revolutionary thought. The congruence between positions taken by inhabitants of his abstract model world and those of preeminent radical thinkers like Marx, Lenin, Bernstein, Luxemburg, Mao, and the Russian terrorist will be striking to political scientists, historian, and sociologists alike.".
