Robert David Steele

Proposal for a Nordic Interagency Intelligence Conference and Centre

A Peace Intelligence Initiative

Introduction

At the conclusion of the recent one-day conference on Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) hosted by the Royal Danish Defence College, a Danish military officer stood up and suggested that the time had come for a Nordic interagency working group on OSINT. I completely agree. The practices of all others are so narrowly focused on military threats and the Internet as the sole source of information that they deprive the Nordic countries of the best available intelligence (decision-support) that can also be fully considered by the public.

Berto Jongman: Action-Based Indigenous Research — a Short Bibliography

Advanced Cyber/IO

Bibliography on Action-Based Research Methods

Action-based research is about making material and social change during our research, through methods and methodologies, rather than after data has been collected. Some are explicitly activist, while others might be about making more ethical collaborations. Such methods are particularly relevant to discard studies, since our field studies something that is seen as harmful and/or in need of management. A new website called “Action-Based Research Methods” has a bibliography on a wide array of action-based research topics, from quantitative Marxism to participatory mapping.

Stephen E. Arnold: Stopping Google

Advanced Cyber/IO, IO Impotency

Google. No One Can Stop It. No One. No One. Aaaargh.

After cranking out three monographs about the Google between 2004 and 2009, it is pretty clear that the Google is falling victim to flawed reproduction of its own DNA. The death of the Alphabet Google will come from within the company itself.

Internet Investigation Tradecraft

A comprehensive 3 Day Workshop designed to give delegates the skills and knowledge required to perform an Internet Investigation or Intelligence Operation

The ability to identify and retrieve relevant and timely information, intelligence or evidence from the Internet and Open Sources has become a routine necessity for Investigators. However, the structure and size of the Internet presents many challenges for Researchers, Analysts and Investigators. A lack of understanding about the nature and workings of the Internet can mean intelligence or evidence opportunities being lost, or investigations compromised. This workshop examines those challenges and builds a framework skill set to enhance Investigations and Intelligence Operations.

This course includes:

Michael Kearns: Leadership & Social Change

Advanced Cyber/IO, Collective Intelligence, Communities of Practice, Ethics, Officers Call

Leadership. The “School” of American Leadership Studies & Development (ALS&D) has been the largest mythological tyrant ever to spew propagandistic mythology (1); therein, inflating the lust for money, power, and control as measures of “success” in America (2). Much like Trump’s Great Man ascertations, about how “great” America can be, much like him-self – with the Great Man, ego-centric hegemon – in charge (3). Bernie, in contrast, says “we, not I,” (4) and thinks about relationships, not self. This is much like the transformational approach in leadership studies (5), as espoused by Burns (1978) and Rost (1991/3), and as codified within the Social Change Model, as created by the National Clearinghouse for Leadership Studies at the University of Maryland, College Park (6).
