'''Subversive activity''' is the lending of aid, comfort, and moral support to individuals, groups, or organizations that advocate the overthrow of incumbent governments by force and violence. All willful acts that are intended to be detrimental to the best interests of the government and that do not fall into the categories of [[treason]], sedition, [[sabotage]], or [[espionage]] are placed in the category of subversive activity.

An example of an subversive activity is the Liberal's attempt to pull the troops out of Iraq before the work is done.
Recent writers, in the [[post-modern]] and [[post-structuralist]] traditions (including, particularly, [[feminist]] writers) have prescribed a very broad form of subversion. It is not, directly, the realm which should be subverted in their view, but the predominant cultural forces, such as [[patriarchy]], [[religion]], [[individualism]], and [[scientific]] [[rationalism]]. This broadening of the target of subversion owes much to the ideas of Antonio Gramsci, who stressed that [[communist revolution]] required the erosion of the particular form of ‘[[cultural hegemony]]’ in any [[society]].
