I’ve shared a visual breakdown explaining the economic drivers behind the Iraq war. This resource uses images to illustrate complex relationships between military action, oil interests, and geopolitical spending during the early 2000s conflict.
I explored the Federation of American Scientists' index of global military operations and was surprised to learn that India was considered at war. It provides a sobering look at active conflicts around the world.
I highlight a Reuters piece on the emergence of war reporting via blogs, discussing how early digital platforms allowed individuals to share direct dispatches from conflict zones, bypassing traditional editorial filters and reshaping modern journalism.
I examine whether software can accurately predict the course and outcome of armed conflicts, similar to weather forecasting. This explores the potential for mathematical models to navigate the immense complexity of modern warfare.
I shared a humorous link from the Telegraph about how grammar becomes the first casualty of war. It highlights linguistic errors that crop up in media coverage during times of conflict.
I found the New School’s History of Economic Thought website to be an excellent resource for exploring contrasting viewpoints on business and economics, providing a deep dive into historical theories and diverse academic perspectives.
