E-raamat: Inside Rebellion: The Politics of Insurgent Violence

'Well structured and clearly written I would strongly recommend this book to those scholars who still believe that quantitative and qualitative approaches are generally irreconcilable.' Political Studies Review 'This book would be of much benefit for both research students and established scholars of civil wars. Moreover, I would strongly recommend this book to those scholars who still believe that quantitative and qualitative approaches are generally irreconcilable.' Political Studies Review ' not only a solid academic achievement that takes its place alongside the most recent literature on civil war, but also a fascinating read that sheds light on central questions such as how rebel groups organise and why civilians have become the primary target of modern warfare.' The International Spectator 'Inside Rebellion offers an insightful account of insurgent politics that extrapolates from empirical data to construct an overarching theoretical framework. This ambitious and wide-ranging book confronts the question of why rebel attempts to capture state power display such variations in violence. Drawing on impressive primary and secondary research, Weinstein articulates a coherent theoretical argument that emphasises the interplay between resources and organisation for our understanding of insurgent violence. this is a valuable contribution to the field.'
