Descripción

On this episode of Shifting Ground, Admiral James "Sandy" Winnefeld introduces his concept of the "global operating system" (GOS)—which includes the rules-based international order and the global economy—explaining that its foundation of international stability is at risk of catastrophic failure due to geopolitical cycles, political polarization, and the overextension of the prevailing power.  Read Admiral Winnefeld's essay The Principle Challenge: Arresting the Decline of the Global Operating System [https://orbisjournal.org/commentary/the-principle-challenge-arresting-the-decline-of-the-global-operating-system/] Explore more on orbisjournal.org [https://orbisjournal.org/]

Episode 1 : Technology, Trust, and the Accelerants of Global Crisis

Stacey Dixon joins Nick Gvosdev and Larry Rubin to discuss the U.S. government's challenge of balancing national security interests by restricting sensitive technology exports with the need for American companies to compete globally and influence international technology standards.  The conversation highlighted "accelerants" like the democratization of conflict technology and the erosion of public trust due to misinformation, recommending that the government secure critical infrastructure, improve cyber hygiene, and cultivate citizens' digital literacy to counter the negative, unintended uses of emerging technologies.
