Two Awakenings, One Process: Implications From The Sunni Realignment In Iraq, 2006-2007, Diane Maye Zorri
Publications
There are several competing beliefs regarding how political factions at the sub-state level choose to align and realign during a state of armed conflict.

The Sunni Awakening demonstrates that individuals will often realign because of betrayal and opportunities for advancement.
