These articles can get you up to speed in case you haven't heard of them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naxalite–Maoist_insurgency#2012 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naxalite As India continues capitalist development, there is increased class stratification and class antagonism. India is in the developing stage but many Indians remain poor peasant farmers or urban workers. The Maoist Naxalites are leading a socialist movement to combat the destruction by capitalism of their nation. They are employing tactics such as Mao's Protracted Peoples' War and focusing on the peasant class. This will have ramifications for the world if successful. As jobs are outsourced to India, a new proletariat is forming which will reach a crisis point as more Indian workers demand their rights. If a revolution is successful in India, this could be a new beacon of hope for socialists around the world: a country on the scale of India undergoing a socialist revolution will awaken class consciousness and spur more revolutionary activity.
