Abstract
The means variable of the insurgency calculus has already been partly examined in several chapters of Part I, for this variable includes a) the method of insurgency as well as b) the capability for engaging in insurgency. The insurgents’ method includes the mode of operations, the operational format and of course the strategy being pursued, all of which were discussed in several earlier chapters. So in this chapter the focus is on capability rather than method, and particularly on the personnel, information and equipment components of insurgents’ military capability.
