Unlike the political and economic theory reader, this one is aimed not at people with a focus on constitutional theory, but rather towards those with an interest in revolution. Would-be revolutionaries of all flavours would do well to read the books here. A number of the classic works from the other list have been repeated here for the convenience of students of revolution.

Che Guevarra's classic instruction book for those intrested in violent overthrow, and the sourcebook behing most of the Latin American marxist movements of this century.
