Paperback. Condition: Good. This volume places recent events in Iraq and Afghanistan to Tunisia and Egypt in historical context. It provides a history of revolutions and insurgencies, an introduction to the way social scientists think about the causes and outcomes of revolutions, and an explanation of their significance in historical and political change. Jack A.

Revolutions have succeeded enough to feed dreams of freedom, but failed often enough to prompt caution.…
