American defense think tank and website
GlobalSecurity.org is an American independent, nonpartisan, nonprofit organization that serves as a think tank , and research and consultancy group. Most active in the late 2000s, the organization’s research has appeared in outlets including The New York Times , The Washington Post , The Boston Globe , Foreign Policy , and The Economist .
Focus
[ edit ]
The site is focused on national and international security issues;[1] military analysis, systems, and strategies;[2] [3] intelligence matters;[4] [5] and space policy .[6] [7]
History
[ edit ]
It was founded in December 2000 by John Pike, who had worked since 1983[8] with the Federation of American Scientists , where he directed the space policy, cyberstrategy, military analysis, nuclear resource, and intelligence resource projects.[9] GlobalSecurity.org is headquartered in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area in Alexandria, Virginia ,[10] [11] and Pike remains as its director.[12]
The website's target audience includes journalists, policy-makers, scholars, political scientists, military and defense personnel, and the public.[13] [11] It supplies background information and developing news stories,[14] providing online analysis and articles that analyze what are sometimes little-discussed topics[11] in categories that include WMDs , military and defense, security and cybersecurity , intelligence , and space technology .[15] [16] [17] It also disseminates primary documentation and other original materials,[11] provides detailed, high-resolution satellite images and video footage from war zones,[18] [19] and provides definitions of widely used terms for the public.[20] The organization also serves as a defense, military, foreign policy , and national-security watchdog group.[19] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [excessive citations ]
In part it seeks to find new approaches to international security, and promotes achieving cooperative international security and preventing nuclear proliferation.[11] [16] [26] To this end it seeks to improve intelligence-community capabilities to respond to new threats and to prevent the need for military action, while at the same time enhancing the effectiveness of military forces when needed.[16]
GlobalSecurity.org was listed in the War Intelligence category of Forbes ' now-defunct "Best of the Web" directory from 2001 onward; the directory cited its "Depth of military information", and noted its "collection of satellite images and video footage from the war zone".[18] In his 2004 book Plan of Attack , about the behind-the-scenes decision-making that led the Bush administration to invade Iraq, Bob Woodward called the website "an invaluable resource on military, intelligence and national security matters".[27]
