Beginning with an analysis of the grievances that motivate peasant participation in political movements, the book also explores the additional factors-leadership, resources, and strategies-required to mobilize peasants for collective action. Collective action itself need not be violent, but a repressive state response can quickly transform a reformist movement into a revolution. Mason shows how different strategies on the part of various actors can result in a government victory, a rebel victory, or a negotiated settlement. The book concludes with a look to the future: Will the emerging trends toward political democratization and economic globalization make revolution in the countryside more or less likely?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51907858891040,"sku":"NEW0742525392","price":44.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61RzfnYwxDL.jpg?v=1782253058","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/caught-in-the-crossfire-revolution-repression-and-the-rational-peasant-0742525392","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
