The work focuses on strategy for combating insurgency and develops principles to guide a regime under insurgent pressure. Drawing on David Galula’s experience across Tunisia, China, Greece, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, and Algeria, the text emphasizes rigorous analysis and uses limited examples to clarify core precepts.","DATE DUE  \n\n|  |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| 37273   | 0   |  |  |\n|  |  |  |  |\n| DE397   |  |  |  |\n| MY28   |  |  |  |\n| 正二8.7   |  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |

end,thecapacity to destroy has been enormously expanded by nu-clear weapons and missiles.At the other,insurgency hasgiven new significance to low levels of violence in anti-colonial struggles and Communist subversive wars.Bothextensions have underscored the political dimensions offorce in international politics.  \nThe Center for International Affairs has been concernedsince its inception with the evolving role of force.The im-pact of nuclear weapons has been a continuing interest ofThomas C.Schelling,Henry A.Kissinger,and others atthe Center.Morton Halperin has been concerned with theanalysis of limited war.The present volume complementsthose studies by dealing with violence at the lower end ofthe scale.  \nIn it,Mr.Galula focuses on the strategy for combatinginsurgency.In writing on this subject,he can draw on anunusual range of experience.Born in Tunisia in 1919(theson of a French citizen),he spent most of his boyhood inCasablanca and,after taking his baccalaureat there in1938,chose a French Army career.Following graduationin 1940 from the French Military Academy at Saint-Cyr,he fought in the European theater during World War II.From 1945 to 1948,he was assigned to China.Then cameeighteen months(in 1949-50)in Greece as United Na-tions Military Observer.For the next five years,he was inHong Kong as Military Attaché.Then,from 1956 to 1958,he served in Algeria.  \n7  \nvi FOREWORD  \nThe present book takes its special character from thisrich background of the author and his unusual bent forrigorous analysis.His primary interest is to develop prin-ciples to guide a regime seeking to combat insurgency.Inarriving at his precepts,Galula has drawn mainly on ob-servations and reflections derived from experience inChina,Greece,Southeast Asia,and Algeria.To highlighthis precepts,he has chosen to confine examples and narra-tive to a minimum.Since insurgency seems likely to be afrequent
