"Pressure from above and below" is the strategy of deliberately creating problems and then offering only those solutions that result in the expansion of government. 

Many people have no conception of this strategy of pressure from above and pressure from above so well outlined in Jan Kozak's book titled And Not a Shot Fired. Some radicals think they are fighting establishment forces, and don't realize that it is precisely such forces which are financing (classical case are communist movements) and using it for their own purposes. 

By way of an example, the establishment can simulate leftist mobs into violent confrontation with local law enforcement, at the same time providing exhaustive news coverage so that the entire nation can see and tremble, by way of solution propose expansion of government powers (police) to supposedly end the violence.
