Counterinsurgency 4 - Anthropologists Make War DinDeng

    • Society & Culture

Today we will also be looking more deeply into the carrot of counterinsurgency. That is to say, the social services, state welfare and rural development infrastructure programs that were written by western academics to be dangled in one hand, while the barbarity of the stick was to be wielded in the other.
