DESCRIPTION
"Economic development may be an important and laudable element in a government's plan to deal with insurgency, but history clearly indicates such efforts are not essential to success. Insurgencies have often been put down with repressive, brute force. Paradoxically, development pushed too far can sever the sometimes fragile threads of social stability—as the Shah of Iran found out.... Additionally, economic development, hard enough to achieve in peace, is extremely difficult to produce in the midst of a guerrilla war."
