The journey of digital transformation in intelligence organizations
This introduction to the special issue explores how digital technologies are reshaping intelligence organizations. It frames digital transformation not as a linear process but as a complex journey shaped by technological, organizational, and institutional factors. Drawing on interdisciplinary perspectives and contributions from multiple national contexts, the issue investigates how intelligence agencies handle the disruptive potential of digital …

Beijingology 2.0: Bridging the “Art” and “Science” of China Watching in Xi Jinping’s New Era
In Xi Jinping’s China, the top leadership is getting even more closed, whereas their decisions carry ever more global weight. Ahead of the Chinese Communist Party’s highly important 20th National Congress to be held in the late autumn of 2022, the eyes of the global Intelligence Community are turning to Beijing. How to divine what exactly is going on in the black box of Chinese elite politics at this sensitive moment? This is the million-dollar-q…

China’s Realism in the Middle East
China seems determined to maintain sound relations with all the major players in the region, to keep a low profile and to avoid costly entanglements
The End of Elite Unity and the Stability of Saudi Arabia
The night of November 4, 2017 will long be remembered as Saudi Arabia’s Night of the Long Knives. While Yemeni Houti rebels fired a ballistic missile toward Riyadh, and the Lebanese Prime Minister
Styringsutfordringer i utformingen av Kinas nye økonomiske modell
Våpenkappløpene i Asia- og Stillehavsområdet
Etter flere tiår med rask økonomisk vekst satser en rekke stater i Asia- og Stillehavsområdet på å utvikle sterkere militærmakt. I denne artikkelen hevdes det at det nå foregår flere våpenkappløp i regionen. Våpenkappløpene skjer på flere militære og militærteknologiske områder og mellom ulike kombinasjoner av stater. Et fellestrekk er imidlertid at de er drevet fram av et Kina som ikke bare har vokst seg sterkere, men som også uroer sine naboer …
Salman's Succession: Challenges to Stability in Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah died the night of January 23, 2015. The king, who was 91, had ruled the kingdom for two decades. After then-King Fahd suffered a stroke in 1995, Abdullah became the cou

Online Mobilization for Civil and Political Rights in Saudi Arabia
Myten om Kinas storstrategi
The Myth of China's Grand Strategy China's contemporary leadership does not have a «grand strategy» for the 21st Century and it is unlikely that the new leaders coming to power in 2012-13 will be able to craft one. These claims go across the views of virtually everyone concerned about China's comeback as a great power in the international arena. Among China observers there is agreement on, and to some extent admiration for, the Chinese leadership…
Regime Stability in Saudi Arabia
This book examines the structure of political power amongst elites inside Saudi Arabia and how they might cope with the very serious challenge posed by succession. Presenting a new and refreshing theoretical approach that links elite integration with regime stability, the author shows that the kingdom’s royal elite is far more integrated than it has generally been given credit for. Based on extensive field work inside Saudi Arabia, the book offer…

Stability and Change in the Modern Middle East
In this ground-breaking book, aimed at new generation of students, Stig Stenslie and Kjetil Selvik provide a new introduction to the contemporary Middle East, using topical questions about stability and change as a way of interrogating the politics, economics and history of the region. How have regimes from North Africa to the Gulf perpetuated themselves in spite of the weakness of the Western-style state, the Islamist trend, and the destabilisin…
Power Behind the Veil: Princesses of the House of Saud
Saudi Arabia's princesses possess substantial political influence — even though none of them hold important formal positions. Whoever has the king's ear has the potential to have influence, and fewer are closer to a Saudi king than his mother, sister, wife, and daughter. The areas that the female members of the Al Saud actively seek to influence are related to women's education and job opportunities, and women's health and legal rights. Even more…
