Organizational Planning Practices Under Uncertainty: The Case Of Ngos In Hadhramaut, Yemen, Khulood Taleb Alamodi Feb 2027

Organizational Planning Practices Under Uncertainty: The Case Of Ngos In Hadhramaut, Yemen, Khulood Taleb Alamodi

Theses and Dissertations

This study examines how local non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in Hadhramaut, Yemen plan and operate under conditions of fragility and uncertainty. Although strategic planning is often presented as a formal and structured process, NGOs in fragile settings face ongoing disruption, unstable funding, and weak institutions. This study asks how planning takes place in practice under these conditions. The study uses qualitative data from 22 semi-structured interviews with NGO leaders, staff, and external actors. A conceptual framework combining contextual fragility, resource dependence, organizational capacity and resilience, and legitimacy and networks was used to examine how these factors shape organizational planning. The findings …


Egypt’S Accession To Brics: Hedging And Strategic Positioning In A Multipolar Order, Daria Konstantinova Jan 2027

Egypt’S Accession To Brics: Hedging And Strategic Positioning In A Multipolar Order, Daria Konstantinova

Theses and Dissertations

Amid Egypt’s longstanding, multifaceted cooperation with the U.S. and Western institutions, spanning political support, economic partnerships, and IMF/World Bank programs, 2024 BRICS expansion included Egypt as one of the new group’s members. This move might be explained by leadership strategic vision, domestic constraints, and geopolitical global and regional dynamics. This research explains the drivers behind Egypt’s accession to BRICS and the way this decision reflects Egypt’s strategic positioning in a changing global order, using agency-centered approach and the theoretical framework of strategic hedging.

While existing literature on BRICS expansion partially explains the reasons behind the new members’ accession and its …

Protecting AI Tool Calls, Persistent Memory, Multimodal Inputs, GPU Inference, and Critical Infrastructure Against Unauthorized Neural-AI Consequences

What happens when a powerful AI model generates an action that its safety guardrails fail to prevent? As frontier neural models evolve from generating text toward autonomous reasoning, coding, tool execution, persistent memory, multimodal understanding, and real-world control, the critical safety challenge increasingly extends beyond what an AI model generates to whether its output is technically permitted to become an irreversible consequence.

This technical disclosure presents a proposed hardware-rooted neural-AI execution-finality architecture, disclosed in International Patent Publication WO/2026/172334 A2 (PCT/IB2026/056809), …


Your Weather App Does Not Need Your Doorstep — Access Is Not Egress: Precision-Bounded Location Release For Apps, Sdks And Ai Agents, Enforced At The Point Where Data Leaves The Device, Sangam Kumar Das Nov 2026

Your Weather App Does Not Need Your Doorstep — Access Is Not Egress: Precision-Bounded Location Release For Apps, Sdks And Ai Agents, Enforced At The Point Where Data Leaves The Device, Sangam Kumar Das

Defensive Publications Series

Abstract

Ask an app for the weather or the nearest pharmacy, and your phone already knows where you stand to within a few metres. The service needs only your city. Yet once an app is allowed to read precise location, that exact coordinate can leave the device through several routes: the app itself, an embedded analytics or advertising SDK, a background cloud sync, or an AI agent’s tool call. These often reach destinations the user never saw as separate disclosures. Repeated, individually harmless coordinates can reveal a home, a workplace, a clinic visit, a daily routine or activity around sensitive …

Defensive Publications Series

In one line: A request can be delivered perfectly, over an encrypted HTTPS connection, to a genuine server, carrying a valid OAuth token, and still represent an action that nobody ever authorized. This disclosure adds the missing layer: each specific action is held until it is approved for that exact effect, at that exact destination, at that moment.

Filing history. The parent application, PCT/IB2026/055615, was filed on 4 June 2026 and published by WIPO on 16 July 2026 as WO 2026/150382. Its specification runs to 8,598 pages and sets out more than 300 distinct embodiments. It builds on an earlier …

The Quest For An Independent Scotland: The Impact Of Culture, Economics, And International Relations Theory On Votes Of Self-Determination, Sam Rohrer, James Gilley, Nathan Price Oct 2026

The Quest For An Independent Scotland: The Impact Of Culture, Economics, And International Relations Theory On Votes Of Self-Determination, Sam Rohrer, James Gilley, Nathan Price

The Journal of Economics and Politics

In the contemporary world, the true locus of sovereignty is up for debate. The drive for Scottish independence from the United Kingdom, within the larger context of the European Union illustrates trends within this relocation of sovereignty. Traditional research focused primarily on the cultural and identity issues at play, as well as economic issues. This work broadens the scope by placing the independence struggle within a complex international context. The shift from a purely realist state system interpretation to that of a refereed Pacific Union illustrates when nationalist and separatist movements can find conditions that allow for a viable secessionist …
