"On Guerrilla Warfare" (book by Mao Zedong)

"On Guerrilla Warfare" is a foundational text by Mao Zedong that outlines strategies for conducting guerrilla warfare, a form of irregular combat where smaller, mobile groups fight larger traditional forces. Mao emphasizes the importance of support from the local population, the strategic use of terrain, and the need for flexibility in tactics. He argues that guerrilla warfare can effectively challenge a stronger opponent by employing surprise attacks, ambushes, and psychological warfare. The book has influenced revolutionary movements worldwide by demonstrating how determined groups can leverage seemingly disadvantaged positions to achieve broader political goals.
