"Revolutionary war.  This became the major form of conflict in the post-world war 2 period, and can be described as a modern adaptation of total war, with the progressive application of political, economic and psychological resources combined with varying degrees of violence and military action.  There are numerous definitions for revolutionary war, which in essence all describe it as a conflict in which wide-ranging and radical change in the political, social and economic field are brought about through the use of violence.
	Basically, revolutionary war is the pursuit of the policy of a politically inspired and organised group inside a country by all means available, also with outside support.  Success is obtained by the creation of a situation of instability and political intolerability through a war of attrition, thus producing a climate of political collapse or acceptance of a negotiated solution, without necessarily defeating military opponents on the battlefield.
	Strategically, revolutionary war is aimed at a total indirect strategy where the revolutionary forces as the weaker side, assume the tactical offensive at selected times and in selected forms and places.  Armed action is used, but on a lower scale than in previous wars.  The psychological weapon is a major factor because the conflict is essentially a struggle for the allegiance and active support of the populations."
