Breakthrough
This book, the first published by The Owls Foundation, tells you how brilliant ideas and inventions can be transformed into innovations and breakthroughs that make a real impact, and analyses why others fail. In the global world of today there is great interdependency. No country, no institution, no company can do it alone. And we cannot ignore the international context. On top of that, no innovation comes on its own. The active engagement and quality of the leading figures who are interviewed is one of the distinguishing features of this project. These remarkable individuals were generous with their time and thought hard to reflect on their experiences.
America's Arctic Moment
In July 2018, CSIS embarked on a major analytical assessment that centered on the following research question: What will be the strategic consequences for the United States by 2050 if America’s two near-peer military competitors, China and Russia, continue to develop their long-term economic and security interests in the Arctic, but the United States does not? Russia’s growing economic and military ambitions in the Arctic, as well as China’s increased physical presence in the region, underscore that both nations have long-term strategic designs for the Arctic region. Data analysis, satellite imagery, and scenario development all demonstrate the continued growth of Russian and Chinese presence in the Arctic and heighten the sense of stasis in the U.S. military and economic presence. Unless the United States wishes to lose access to portions of the Arctic and have increasingly diminished capabilities to defend and deter attack against the homeland, the United States must return to the Arctic.

Fredsnasjonen Norge
Er Norge en fredsnasjon? En aktør som prioriterer fredsbevarende operasjoner, dialog og humanitære bidrag? Det er lenge siden de norske FN-soldatene i Libanon var våre viktigste styrker internasjonalt. Bosnia og Kosovo viste at vi kunne spille en annen rolle utenfor våre egne grenser, og frem mot i dag har det som kan betegnes som regulær krigføring vært regelen snarere enn unntaket - både i Afghanistan, Irak og Libya. Kristoffer Egeberg går inn i de siste års store forsvars- og sikkerhetspolitiske spørsmål, og viser oss spillet i kulissene.Blant underlige fredsinitiativ, skarpe operasjoner, personkonflikter, uklare politiske visjoner og interne maktkamper, er det også mye som tyder på at Norge har vært sin egen største fiende i arbeidet med å omstille forsvaret og utforme den sikkerhetspolitikken som skulle profilere Norge som fredsnasjonen i en verden preget av krig.
Defending NATO’s Northern Flank
This book investigates several aspects of military power and security in the North Atlantic and Arctic regions. NATO’s northern flank is a large maritime and littoral theatre, where NATO directly borders Russia’s Northern Fleet Military Administrative Territory, which is the location of some of Russia’s most potent air, sea, and land power capabilities. While military tensions on the northern flank had been relatively low for years, the Ukraine war and increased great-power rivalry have altered that dynamic, with heightened geopolitical tensions. This has increased the focus on military-strategic competition in this northernmost region of the alliance. This book presents new assessment...
