With a tip of the hat to Intelligence Online from France, the ONLY intelligence newsletter in English that we consider a “must read,” below, with a link to Intelligence Online, is a short story on IARPA (Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity) plans to invest in a multi-year program to study and detect signs of trust and mis-trust.

We are of course inspired by any attention, however peripheral, to the basics of trust.  Presumably IARPA will discover early on that a Nobel Prize was awarded to the person who demonstrated that trusts lowers the cost of doing business; they might then discover that trust is tangibly and measureably associated with clarity, diversity, integrity, and sustainability; and that trust flourishes in environments or cultures that respect morality, legitimacy, reciprocity, and transparency.

This spectacular mis-application of the taxpayer's resources is right up there with DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) funding of combat robots for the future programmed to not commit warcrimes.
