It’s pretty undeniable that learning from the successes and failures of previous revolutions increases your chance of success. The Haitian revolution in particular was one of National Liberation, the likes of which Marxists like Frantz Fanon have spent lifetimes analyzing. It isn’t about finding “predefined theory,” but not reinventing the wheel every time. See what can be universalized, see what can’t be, and work from there.
Again, though, I recommend you dive into the myriad factions at play in the many successful Socialist revolutions we have seen. Many factions supported the idea of “general radicalization,” like the SRs, but ultimately it ended up being the more organized and dedicated to theory that successfully guided revolution.
