Successful in what sense?
Displacing the previous government with a different one. What other sense is there?
So, coups are a category of revolution?
Ibrahim Traoré? Although there may be issues there, too.
If the coup is supported by the masses and actually replaces the government itself, then yes. If it’s not supported by the masses, or merely replaces the leadership of the existing government, then no.
Oh. So it needs to be supported by ‘the masses’; whatvpercentage?
I’d say 50%+, but I’m sure various political historians would draw the line in various places.
And is that 50% of the pre revolution population, or 50% of the post revolution population?
Let’s say pre, what are you trying to demonstrate with this line of questions?
Im just asking questions. Curious as to what you believe.
