Joint Seminar: Paradigmas de Análise Estratégica 2019

In view of the profound changes in the global strategic environment, driven by the many recent and ongoing technological advances, it is imperative that nations develop paradigms and analytical tools capable of facilitating both the production of rigorous assessments of political-strategic contexts as well as reliable estimates of their likely future outcomes — especially those with potential impact on the strategic environment. To that end, the Brazilian War College and the Perry Center will conduct a week-long joint seminar titled "Paradigmas de Análise Estratégica e Planejamento Baseados em Capacidades" in Brasilia, Brazil. Preceded by a two-week online phase, the seminar explores topics such as:

• The value of strategic planning
• Analysis of human, individual and group limitations in the preparation of context assessments and future projections
• The observation of different national perspectives in the production of strategic evaluations according to their defense culture, world perception, and applied methodologies
• The value of using of analytical tools that can assist in the development of methodologies for strategic planning
