While revolutions are an aspect of historical change and also a change of the form of economics it is an aspect of usurpation by war that seems of doubtful structure. If the best wars are those where soldiers do not fight then the best revolutions are the ones where power is exchanged without bloodletting. However the resulting civil war that counters the revolution and seems at first an integral part of the revolution at the same time makes this idea a difficult one to achieve. The more lives that are saved, the more effort is invested into organisation. The second difficulty is the already established form of revolution, where one side to a more or less extent copycats the previous themes.
Communists and extreme leftists have advocated violence. However science shows that nonviolent struggle is twice as often effective as do violent struggles.
If violence was used to bring in a new form of society, that society may succumb to further internal conflicts that were congenital in its formation. This is a question that should be investigated.
