ABSTRACT
Since the beginning of the, so called, „Arabian Spring”, that took place in countries of the
North Africa and the Middle East, one can observe a rise in numbers of the “rebellion wars”. In addition a type of war observed in the Ukrainian conwict since 2014 has many characteristics resembling
some categories of the „rebellion”. Furthermore, its dynamics and potential for escalation and spreading (for example, because of the large emigration waves) is growing. Hence, the need for theoretical
overview and analysis of armed rebellions phenomenon becomes actual. In unison with the above, the
aim of the article is a critical overview of scientizc data available on past rebellions and, based on the
contemporary conwicts, an analysis of the current state of knowledge in a subject matter
