Great search, thank you.  How “risk” is defined determines what countries are up or down.  It is therefore essential to demand an itemization of assumptions, and to question those risk maps that are so conventional in nature as to ignore both rising sea levels and dropping drinkable water aquifers.  Dun & Broadstreet has never been especially thoughtful about risk at either the enterprise or the country level.  Similarly, Control Risks is focused on “old” concepts of risk rather than new concepts, or the USA and China would both be red zones.  Here are a few links and images.

Access to water

“How does a company respect local communities’ right to water when operating production facilities that require high levels of water consumption and where the community suffers from an inadequate water supply by relevant government authorities, but where the business is welcome as a source of jobs and revenue?”

This is a very fine search made by five people, and warrants creation of a new post.  Today the US Government took pleasure in announcing the murder of the child of the US citizen they murdered the other day, without due process, in violation of the Constitution, using a remotely controlled drone, the same device used to kill the child.

At its highest level, citizen counterintelligence is about knowing everything possible about the government at every level from police precinct to global, and about corporations from the local store to the global headquarters.

The focus is on getting at the truth–validating who is who, what is what, and who can be trusted.

Counterintelligence consists of two parts:

The original citation service in the USA is provided by the Institute of Scientific Information (ISI), which publishes the Science Citation Index (SCI) and the Social Science Citation Index (SSCI).  These are both online at DIALOG, and can be searched using the RANK command to identify the top 10, 20, 100 authors based on a specified topic and how many times others have cited them.  Generally it is useful to also note the number of articles each author has published, and to create a visualization of the citation clusters that quickly identify both centers of excellence and citation “clubs” a form of citation incest.  Acquired by Thomson Reuters, and losing Eugene Garfield and Henry Small (the latter to Maps of Science, see below), this is still the primary service but not growing to its fullest potential.  We exploit this via specialist information brokers; Mary Ellen Bates in particular has pioneered use of the RANK command–someone who does not know what they are doing can run up a huge bill that is not necessary.

Elsevier, late to the game, publishes an online service, Scopus.

China has adapted the idea to its own publications, and this is an extraordinary resource, one that a multinational Open Source Agency would strive to rapidly extend to all nations and all languages.  This is not to be confused with the effort by Thompson Reuters to expand into Chinese citation analytics as described by Philip Purnell in “Citation Analysis in China,” Beijing, May 2011.

Maps of Science, founded by Dick Klavans, who is unique for having complete access to all ISA data for his company, recently confirmed by a court when ISI balked at honoring its original deal, is the best exploitation scientist and artist we know of, using citation to find clusters of excellence and to identify gaps at the national, industrial, or company level.

I was asked to come in and do this one, and did so gladly.  Public intelligence in the public interest, done with integrity, is the global brain.  The human brain is the only inexhaustible resource we have, and Priority One should be to empower the five billion poor with connectivity first, and access to all possible knowledge, free, second.  That will create infinite wealth and a prosperous world at peace.  Those who oppose this are selfish and simple — in no way does this goal reduce the ill-gotten gains of those few who have profited at the expense of the many all these years — Truth & Reconciliation, rather than Impeachment and Hanging, is what we offer to those few.  They should take the deal and be glad to get it.  St.

WordPress can deal with – but not ably – compound questions  –  one reason why those who try to substitute technology for human thinking will always be severely challenged in the world of intelligence (decision-support).   Automated search does not do nuances.  Consider also using the new directories for major sets (Articles, Briefings, Graphics, RECAPs, & Searches) and remember that this web-site is the front end to www.oss.net (40,000 pages, 800 contributors) and www.earth-intelligence.net (1000 pages, 24 contributors).  The Remixed Review Lists (70) are now a year out of date, but still an excellent starting point.

Negatives had to be excluded.  We do not have a world brain today because governments and corporations are corrupt and deliberately blocking all possible initiatives associated with “Open Everything.”  Right now corruption, fraud, gambling, and pornography rule.

The next “shift” for good might be among the young and world presidents, stimulated by their membership out of Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, the Iranian diasphora, Russia, and Venezuela.  It is obvious that the one billion rich with a one trillion a year economy have been both well and ill served by predatory industrial-era capitalism, and that the next big big new new thing is capitalism of, by, and for the five billion poor with a four trillion a year economy.  Lacking has been the shared open source agency, analytic model, and real-time information sharing grid to achieve near-real-time identification and satisfaction–for profit and in a sustainable manner–all global to local needs.

WordPress responds better to simple requests, for example,< dia dispo > yields a more limited results than < diospo > by itself, the most significant additional hit being 2009 DoD OSINT Leadership and Staff Briefings.

Nothing DIA does really matters–its leadership, like that of NSA, CIA, and the NRO–lacks integrity.  All of them are sucking chest wounds on the Republic, along with the service “intelligence” elements.  Below are four links, one positive, one provocative, one starkly negative, and the fourth referential.

Searches are among the most valuable aspects of this web site, attracting collective intelligence and opening new vistas not otherwise obvious.  Thank you for this search.  After exploring, we now know that it is not the Joe Markowtiz of Community Open Source Intelligence Program (COSPO) distinction, nor it is Maslow’s hierarchy of needs….something much more interesting and highly relevant to public intelligence in the public interest.

Innovation: The Five Disciplines for Creating What Customers Want by Curtis R. Carlson and William W. Wilmot

Phi Beta Iota: As this is being written, the DVD Temple Gradin is on background. What is becoming so very clear is the immaturity of the Industrial-Era mindset. Stove-pipe non-integrative thinking is killing the Earth and killing humanity.

Although the search yields appropriate results, this is a good opportunity to highlight the history and intent of the various mottos of this public intelligence endeavor.

Ex Veritate Potens.  This was the motto of the Marine Corps Intelligence Center (MCIA), co-founded by Col Walter J. Breede III and his Special Assistant and Deputy Director Robert Steele.  It was inspired by a mix of the US Naval Academy motto (Breede is USNA ’68) and the CIA motto (Steele is a veteran of the CIA clandestine service).

Ex Sciencia Tridens + Ye Shall Know the Truth and the Truth Shall Set You Free (John 8:32)

When Open Source Solutions, Inc. (later Open Source Solutions Network, Inc.) was created, it adopted the informal MCIA motto, only to hear in 1994 from Winston Maiki (RIP) that the Latin was incorrect, that it should be E Veritate Potens (from truth, we (the people) are made powerful).  And so it became.

OSS.Net, Inc. went out of business in 2008 and closed its tax records in 2010.  The motto was adopted by its follow-on, the non-profit 501c3 Earth Intelligence Network, a Virginia corporation that is dormant at this time.

When Phi Beta Iota the Public Intelligence Blog was created a few years ago, several quotations were assembled for the About page, generally focusing on the importance of the truth and the cost of dishonesty and the corruption of the truth.  At that time, founder Robert Steele refined a concept that has been on his mind since beginning to read about true cost economics as devised by Herman Daly, and composed the following:

The truth at any cost lowers all other costs.

More recently, inspired by the work of Doug Rushkoff and Venessa Miemis, and the long-running persistent championship of Michel Bauwens for Person to Person (P2P) global to local engagement, this web site, Phi Beta Iota the Public Intelligence Blog, devised a crude (Google translate) approximation of Connected We Are One: Connexum Sumus Unum.

Other translation sources became available, and Conexa Sunt Unum has been proposed. but not confirmed in part because Sunt appears to be external while Sumus is Of, By, and For We the People.  We await the intervention of a qualified Latin scholar, greatly missing our #1 OSINT Analyst, Winston Maiki.

In passing, Robert Garigue (RIP) is the original pioneer of the concept that all security is about truth–not about force of arms or prevention.  Security is about transparency, truth, and trust.  One could spend a lifetime thinking about and acting on this Nobel-level insight.  He is featured in the Phi Beta Iota Public Intelligence Blog, see Garigue–together with Winston Maiki, he is one of the many angels that watch over this righteous endeavor.
