Global Strategic Behavior
Overview
Global Strategic Behavior explains how states, power blocs, corporations, digital platforms, and transnational actors behave strategically to secure interests, influence, security, resources, and technological advantages within the global system.
Strategic behavior is intentional, adaptive, and competitive — emerging from:
