A soft pivot to Asia that emphasizes the creation of numerous small capacity-building bases that rely on the logic of deterrence to defend allies and avoid provoking China;
The promise of geographic information systems for understanding the connection between foreign aid and militancy;
Combating urban no-go zones in the developing world by encouraging grassroots security initiatives and governance.
