The Philippines government has been dealing with insurgency for over a decade. The conflict caused by some militant-rebel groups is gaining too much attention from the international communities, particularly the human rights groups and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, so various studies and researches have been conducted and are being conducted by some scholars and peace advocates to assist the government and the rebel arm groups in reaching an agreement that will satisfy the demands and requirements set by both parties.

The U.S. military and national security community lost interest in insurgency after the end of the Cold War when other defense issues such as multinational peacekeeping and transformation seemed more pressing. With the onset of the Global War on Terror in 2001 and the ensuing involvement of the U.S. military in counterinsurgency support in Iraq and Afghanistan, insurgency experienced renewed concern in both the defense and intelligence communities. The author argues that while exceptionally important, this relearning process focused on Cold War era nationalistic insurgencies rather than the complex conflicts which characterized the post-Cold War security environment. To be successful at counterinsurgency, he contends, the U.S. military and defense community must rethink insurgency, which has profound implications for American strategy and military doctrine. ; https://press.armywarcollege.edu/monographs/1677/thumbnail.jpg
