Context - I am an International Relations student, and President of the International Relations Society, at the University of Exeter.
I'm currently undertaking a week long group research project, and this is our starting question.
Any research suggestions or perspectives would be greatly appreciated.
On that note, please do get in touch with myself either on ResearchGate or LinkedIn, if you would be interested in potentially giving an online talk (or in-person if our finances permit) to the Society. Our members are especially interested in strategy and security studies research/professional experience.
Best regards, thanks very much!

From what I have studies, I can say that military technology can sure help with climate mitigation. Military's field kitchens and mobile hospitals can provide humanitarian assistance, the drone and satellite imagery facility can be used to monitor areas leading to deforestation and flooding, buildings and infrastructure can be made earthquake and flood proof and so on. Also sensors can be placed to measure pollution and humidity levels.

My thesis in Quaker Studies centers on building learning targets for nonviolent social activists by applying strategic studies to recognized social movements. One of my micro-case studies is the effort to win women the voting franchise in the first two decades of the 20th century.

Wonderful answer, thanks. The "Suffrage Matinee" is interesting to me as a theatre guy, as well. I will certainly look into the Dani/McAdam, as well, That seems to touch closely to where I'm working, which is the application of strategic studies language to nonviolent social movements.

Is there a specific concept in strategic studies (or other disciplines) that describes the instance where a military leader/politician might be overexaggerating or bluffing the military's real capacity? Could anyone offer their/others' research that might be relevant? For context, I'm an IR student at the University of Exeter and am currently writing a 1600 word case study into the case of Burkina Faso's current counterterrorism efforts. Thank you!

As for the military and strategic capabilities with which countries operate, they do not differ from one country to another except for the presence of expertise among the military institution, as well as the extent of the possibility of using weapons in any possible battle and from one region to another due to the circumstances surrounding that region, which is what was observed yesterday in a terrorist operation inside Russia. Itself and who was behind that operation? So, according to the Russian perception, it is not possible for such an attack to occur in its own backyard, that is, the strategy in such an attack does not depend on large forces and heavy weapons, but rather it adopts the strategy of surprise attack.

I'm an International Relations student at the University of Exeter and I'm currently trying to produce a case study looking into the military strategy and decision making processes of the M23 rebel movement in the DRC. However, most literature appears to approach this issue from a peace and conflict angle. Yet, a UN official interestingly claimed last year that the M23 rebels function like a "conventional" military. Is anyone able to recommend any research on the M23 rebels' strategic thinking or of strategy in rebel insurgencies more generally? Thank you!
Relevant answer
Answer
Thank you very much for your comment Nazario, do you think it would be possible to try and gain the strategic perspective of the DRC government itself instead, or are there any other African insurgencies you know of that might be more accessible to research on?

What is relationship between strategy and security study
Relevant answer
Answer
Strategic studies and security studies are two closely related academic fields, but they have some key differences. Here are some basic differences between strategic studies and security studies:
Scope: Strategic studies are concerned with the overall objectives and goals of a state or organization, while security studies focus on threats to these objectives and goals.
Timeframe: Strategic studies are focused on long-term planning and decision-making, while security studies are more concerned with immediate threats and responses.
Actors: Strategic studies consider a broad range of actors, including states, international organizations, and non-state actors, while security studies focus mainly on states and the threats they face.
Focus: Strategic studies are concerned with the use of military force as a means of achieving strategic objectives, while security studies consider a wider range of threats, including economic, environmental, and societal threats.
Disciplinary Approach: Strategic studies are traditionally rooted in military science, while security studies draw on a wider range of disciplines, including political science, sociology, and international relations.
Strategy Development: Strategic studies are focused on the development and implementation of strategic plans, while security studies are more concerned with the identification and analysis of threats.
Role of Technology: Strategic studies often focus on the development and use of new military technologies, while security studies examine the potential impact of technology on security threats.
Risk Assessment: Security studies emphasize the importance of risk assessment and risk management, while strategic studies focus more on the development of strategic plans.
Regional Focus: Security studies often have a regional focus, examining security threats within a particular region, while strategic studies take a broader, global perspective.
Level of Analysis: Strategic studies often focus on the strategic decision-making of top-level policymakers, while security studies examine security threats and responses at a range of levels, including local, national, and

The role of emotional trauma in the development of psychosis has been an emerging theme in both clinical work and in some research. I'm wondering how one could strategize to study the link between these two phenomena in a qualitative context and still be able to design a study that would be acceptable by IRB?
