Research in strategic intelligence
Strategic intelligence examines how forces across technology, security, institutions, and society interact, so decision-makers can understand what is changing, why it matters, and which choices may shape what comes next.
This site has a focused purpose: to showcase important research studies in the strategic intelligence space and make them useful beyond a doctoral audience. Begin with an accessible explainer, then follow the argument into its methods, evidence, and limits. The formal scholarly record belongs in repositories such as ProQuest.
Explainers / Start here
Written for a general reader, each explainer leads with the human question and the stakes. If you want to go further, its interactive research presentation keeps the method, evidence, and limitations within reach.

Finishing a question that cannot pay you back
Using a deliberately unwinnable question about faith traditions as its test case, The Terminal Experiment documents how one researcher and seven role-separated AI model variants carried a governed inquiry to a defensible null. Its nine-case inner study uses blind coding and cross-family adjudication, with five outcome-eligible cases analyzed through preregistered crisp-set QCA. The governed record makes provenance, disagreement, review, and repair inspectable without claiming empirical validation or superiority.
A comparative case study on securing United States national security interests
A qualitative comparison of Estonia, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States examining how cyberspace policy can adapt to AI and Web 3.0 while safeguarding critical infrastructure. The study draws context-specific lessons for U.S. regulation, public-private collaboration, workforce development, and harmonized international standards.
