Why Writers Should Know About The Counter Insurgency History

By Christopher Sanders


For a writer to create a touching conflict, he or she must know about the history. No matter how many times has passed, as long as the roots of the problem exist, history would always repeat itself. It is important that fictional and literary writers should know a lot of things about counter insurgency history. They would not only need it in creating an excellent story. They would also need it for their business research and studies. That is very true for business writers.

History would keep on repeating itself. As long as the factor that triggers the uprising remains visible, a revolution would certainly come. Counterinsurgency is not only created to arrest those people who lead it. More than that, these countermeasures are established to eliminate the cause of the revolution.

They are meticulously designed to solve the major issues that exist in the country. Despite their authorities, politicians are not god. Regardless how good they are in leading the country, they too commit mistakes. They also have some flaws and personal problems.

Some of their most trusted assets would abandon them and their commands. For sure, right now, tons of you who are reading this article might be quite confused with the comparison. That is fine. Read further. At the end of the article, readers, particularly, businessmen would know why they must understand the history of counterinsurgency.

Regardless of their rank, knowing the past would greatly teach political leaders on how to be great in their field. Despite the different setup, most of the problems politicians carried right now already happen in the past. It is valuable that they learned something from the previous leaders and from the previous generations.

Imagine being born in that era. Regardless of its cost, consider what would happen to those people who are caught in the revolution. Imagine how the political leaders feel during that time. Imagine what the rebels think during those periods. Consider the perspectives of the military too.

Writers might be able to use these issues, particularly, in honing their writing skills and abilities. It would definitely make their work more realistic and touching. It is not true that writers are free. If they want the readers to understand them, they need to be rational with their plots and with their emotions.

They abuse their power. They take their position too lightly. Aside from economic and societal factor, this is one of the reasons that lead to mutinies. If someone lacks an experienced in this field, all he needs to do is to study. History books will never run away.

He should make the time for it. With his position, learning and understanding the history is no longer an option. It is a necessity. It is something that politicians should do to avoid war, needless battles, and hopeless uprising.
