The Red Brigades: Strategy, Tactics, and Targets

The Red Brigades operated with the strategy of establishing a dictatorship of the proletariat through armed propaganda and violent actions to overthrow the state. Their tactics involved calculated political terrorism and politically motivated kidnappings and murders, avoiding mass casualties. Initially targeting anti-worker entities, the group faced strategic failure after Aldo Moro's death, leading to intense persecution and lack of government legitimacy.
