I have been thinking...

What about third world nations that are progressing through capitalistic means economically and socially. For example, what about a nation that is gaining economical growth through a market economy. Would it be wise to encourage a revolution there, even if such revolution would destabilize the economical growth, or wait a bit until the economy becomes stagnant?

For example, the bourgeoisie has shown their worthlessness in some first world nations where the economy hasnt been growing anymore, an example would be America. A revolution is the logical process that America needs to pass through right now.

The first world bourgeoisie is becoming completely worthless--they do not even manage the means of production anymore--for that, they have a petty bourgeosie cadre at their disposal.

I don't know what you mean by progressing, but in my view, the third world countries weren't progressing. In fact, they are more and more becoming tied to or being extended by the Imperialist countries. If you call that progression, I incline to disagree. I call it more as neocolonialism and capitalist globalization's intensification of domination. And it yielded more devastating results to these countries than "development".


Would it be wise to encourage a revolution there,...

Well, no need to "encourage". In the third world countries, a revolution has been going on in the Philippines, Nepal, to name a few.

It depends, for countries such as China, India etc. then it would be wise to encourage a revolution but I highly doubt anything would come of it.

If by third-world you mean exploited by imperialism and the such, i.e. Latin America, Africa, Southeast Asia, etc. then yes a revolution should definitely be encouraged as it's anti-imperialist/nationalist bent would allow the country to progress and develop capitalism independently as well as weaken the bourgeoisie in the first-world.

What is meant by "encourage revolution?" If the oppressed and exploited of any country become sufficiently sick of the system imposed on them, they will fight back. We should obviously support all such outpourings of under-class rage against society.
