This monograph creates a proposed insurgency typology divided into legacy, contemporary, and emergent and potential insurgency forms, and provides strategic implications for U.S. defense policy as they relate to each of these forms.

This monograph creates a proposed insurgency typology divided into legacy, contemporary, and emergent and potential insurgency forms, and provides strategic implications for U.S. defense policy as they relate to each of these forms. The typology clusters, insurgency forms identified, and their starting dates are as follows, Legacy Anarchist (1880s), Separatist--Internal and External (1920s), Maoist Peoples (1930s), and Urban Left (Late-1960s); Contemporary Radical Islamist (1979), Liberal Democratic (1989), Criminal (Early 2000s), and Plutocratic (2008); and Emergent and Potential Blood Cultist (Emergent), Chinese Authoritarianism (Potentials; Near to Midterm), and Cyborg and Spiritual Machine (Potentials; Long Term/Science Fiction-like). The most significant strategic implications of these forms for U.S. defense policy are derived from the contemporary Radical Islamist form followed by the contemporary Criminal and emergent Blood Cultist forms. If the potential Chinese Authoritarianism form should come to pass it would also result in significant strategic impacts. Audience: U.S. law enforcement, especially U.S. Federal law enforcement, national security strategists, military personnel, policy advisors, political leaders, historians, and others interested in the historical nomenclature, threat potentials, and active implications of groupings of insurgency and terrorist organizations may be interested in this work. Additionally, students pursuing coursework for homeland security and military science classes, plus intelligence studies and intelligence operations coursework for completion of certificate programs may be interested in this information for research papers.
