Research draft, second pass

A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description

Let an agent explain rebellion as a concept and event type, relay causes, forms and outcomes from historical and social science sources with attribution, describe the forms the registry aliases name, and distinguish rebellion from revolution, civil war, protest, insurgency and terrorism, presenting contested cases neutrally and without operational content.

An organised refusal to obey or an armed uprising against an established authority, ranging from mutinies within military units and local riots and uprisings, such as those recorded in Amsterdam, to peasant leagues and revolts such as the Japanese ikki and sokoku-ikki of the medieval and early modern periods, and national uprisings such as the Silesian Uprisings of 1919 to 1921; rebellion is studied as a form of social and armed conflict and as a historical event type. The model describes rebellions historically and neutrally.

What it is for: Not applicable; a form of conflict.

It can be explain the concept; relay causes and forms; describe named forms; distinguish related concepts.

What the second pass must settle

  • Should mutiny and ikki be separate primary entries?
  • How should historical sources be linked?
  • The registry entry has merged aliases naming participants, Amsterdam events and Japanese forms; should they be split off?
