  • Between depth and takhbulah— learning to exploit cunning intelligence in future strategy and operations

    Open AccessAnders EkholmARTICLEComparative Strategy2024

    This article is about Operational art and the feature of depth. It exploits the Israeli Operational concept of takhbulah, a deceptive two-stage theory thriving on the changing nature of reality. Challenging military ideal models and rigid paradigms, it displays how conformity to emergence and courses of action outside perceived boundaries, normally choking creativity, can provide an effective cognitive depth enhancer by unlocking potential alread…

  • Wizards of depth – Israel’s area of operations and lessons learned from its depth dimension

    Open AccessAnders EkholmARTICLEDefence Studies2023References: 2

    This article aims to broaden the understanding of Operational Depth (OD) by rethinking how it can be perceived. The emphasis when doing so is dedicated to cognitive effects, thus another dimension of depth, compared to the mainstream physical- or temporal approaches to depth in military thought. The empirical focus draws on Israel and explicitly the case of the 2006 war between Israel and Hezbollah to provide an example where a lack of physical d…

  • Re-thinking operational depth—A source of power

    Open AccessAnders EkholmARTICLEComparative Strategy2021

    This article addresses the inferior actor problem of handling a limited physical operational depth in relation to a superior antagonist. It argues that operational depth from an inferior perspective is better viewed as a source of power, a flexible asset constructed from available skills- and resources. It suggests that ambitions to create- or extend an actors operational depth is better approached in abstract terms from the angles: physical-, te…

  • Bayes Estimates for the Price and Income Elasticities of Alcoholic Beverages in Finland From 1955 to 1980

    Juha Ahtola, Anders Ekholm et al.ARTICLEJournal of Business and Economic…1986

    The Lindley–Smith theory of Bayes estimates for multiple regression equations with exchangeability between the regression coefficients of the individual equations is extended to the case in which a first-order autoregressive process generates the regression coefficients. The ensuing formulas are applied to study monthly Finnish consumption of alcohol. The point of this application is that exchangeability between the regression coefficients is les…

  • The Lognormal Distribution of Blood Alcohol Concentrations in Drivers

    Anders EkholmARTICLEQuarterly Journal of Studies on…1972

    It has recently been concluded that if the blood alcohol concentration in drivers is lognormally distributed, the proportion of drivers with blood alcohol concentrations above a certain level does not depend on the mean of the population. This conclusion is shown to be wrong, and approximate formulas for evaluating the change in the proportion from changes in the mean and standard deviation of the population are given
