Sanando a las Américas con una Agencia de Fuente Abierta

¿Puede Chile llevar a las Américas hacia un sistema total de Todo Abierto (Open Source)?

Robert David STEELE Vivas, CEO, Earth Intelligence Network

*El autor fue invitado a dictar una conferencia por la Academia Nacional de Estudios Políticos y Estratégicos (ANEPE) en noviembre de 2010, cuyo tópico fue “El impacto de la globalización en la Inteligencia: Contexto y Cambios”. Dicha exposición (videos y gráficos), se encuentra disponible en español en: http://tinyurl.com/SteeleCHILE. Aquí el autor resume su presentación en la Junta Inter–Americana de Defensa (JID) en Washington, D.C. Hasta el momento dirigida por un general canadiense, la JID pronto será encabezada por el general chileno Werther Araya Menghini. Este informe original en Inglés se puede ver en http://tinyurl.com/IADB-Abierto. Una explicación del logo y el escudo de armas se puede encontrar en http://tinyurl.com/OSE-LOGO.     

Desde mi punto de vista, la Organización de Estados Americanos (OEA) está próxima a su fin. Su reemplazo es posible, la Comunidad de Estados Latinoamericanos y Caribeños (CELAC), es un organismo recién nacido y que no tiene voz todavía. La Junta Interamericana de Defensa (JID), independiente de la OEA y ahora parte subordinada de la OEA, está en el limbo; sin visión, sin dinero o mérito. Sólo 26 de los 34 miembros de la OEA son también miembros de la JID. El Colegio Interamericano de Defensa (CID), que está ubicado en un edificio integrado en el campo de la US Universidad Nacional de Defensa en Fort Leslie J. McNair, es el elemento sustancial del JID, y está abierto a todos los miembros de la OEA, no sólo para los representados en la Junta.

Tomando en cuenta lo anterior, propongo a la consideración de Centro América, Sud América y el Caribe tres ideas:

Healing the Americas with an Open Source Agency

Can Chile Lead the Americas Toward Open Source Everything?

Robert David STEELE Vivas, CEO, Earth Intelligence Network

Editor’s Note:  The author spoke in Chile in November 2010, sponsored by the National Academy for Political and Strategic Studies (ANAPE), on the topic of “Impact of Globalization on Intelligence: Context & Challenge.  His complete briefing, in video and in graphics, both in Spanish, is free online at http://tinyurl.com/SteeleCHILE. Here the author summarizes his presentation to the Inter-American Defense Board (IADB) in Washington, D.C.  Now led by a Canadian general, the IADB will soon be led by Chilean General, Werther Araya Menghini.  The original briefing in English can be seen at http://tinyurl.com/IADB-Abierto. An explanation of the logo and coat of arms can be found at http://tinyurl.com/OSE-LOGO.

In my view, the Organization of American States (OAS) is near death.  Its possible replacement, the Comunidad de Estados Latinoamericanos y Caribeños (CELAC), is newly-born and has no voice just yet.  The Inter-American Defense Board (IADB), independent of the OAS and now a subordinate part of the OAS, is in limbo, lacking vision, money, or merit.  Only 26 of the 34 members of the OAS are also members of the IADB.  The Inter-American Defense College (IADC), located in a single building near the US National Defense University at Fort Leslie J. McNair, is the one substantial element of the IADB, and is open to all members of the OAS, not only to those represented within the IADB.

I propose for consideration by Central and South America, and the Caribbean, three ideas:

INTELLIGENCE with INTEGRITY: Preface 1.0

01 Preface i-ii

Preface

This is the first book in the English language to address intelligence with integrity as a whole systems process, product, and service – as an integral function of both citizen life and the governance of any organization.  Although conceptualized as a result of a lifetime of service in the so-called profession of intelligence, the essence of this book is captured in Ada Bozeman’s timeless insight (1998: 177):

(There is a need) to recognize that just as the essence of knowledge is not as split up into academic disciplines as it is in our academic universe, so can intelligence not be set apart from statecraft and society, or subdivided into elements…such as analysis and estimates, counterintelligence, clandestine collection, covert action, and so forth. Rather … intelligence is a scheme of things entire.

In that light, the following three quotations are helpful in understanding the importance of this work to the future of humanity (Ackoff 2004):
