Description
Danny and Derek welcome Joseph MacKay, senior lecturer at the Australian National University, to talk about counterinsurgency— what it is, where it came from, and why it persists. The discussion focuses on several case studies over several centuries, using military manuals and their respective authors as a guide, to give us an idea of how counter-insurrectionary war developed and eventually took on its late twentieth and early twenty-first century forms.
