Changes in the global environment, the complexity of decision-making, and the new role of social media have challenged the operating models and practices of traditional crisis preparedness and security of supply. In a knowledge society context, securing the continuous flow of information and communication on different platforms is a huge challenge, and the role of information resilience is more crucial than ever. Bringing together leading specialists from many fields on information resilience, this book examines how to ensure the undisturbed flow of information, the functionality of information and communications networks, and reliable and secure information content in all circumstances, both from an individual and societal viewpoint. The book address issues around information resilience from the standpoint of management, national security, misinformation, social media, and commercial actors. It will appeal to scholars and students of public policy, disaster management, security studies and governance, as well as practitioners.Chapters 1 and 12 are licensed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).

In a changing environment, the inability to adapt will eventually lead to failure. In the high-stakes, fiercely competitive domain of national security and intelligence, the lack of adaptive capacity can lead to disastrous consequences, affecting not just the intelligence apparatus itself but the society it is meant to safeguard.Today’s complex security environment poses a tremendous challenge for intelligence organisations and wider governance structures. Bringing together academics and practitioners, this multidisciplinary volume explores the various facets of adaptation in intelligence. Drawing on theoretical and empirical research, it examines the mechanisms that facilitate and impede adaptation in intelligence, and assesses the significance of adaptability in the wider national security context.The book will appeal to scholars and students of intelligence studies, public administration, political science and international relations, as well as national security policymakers.

Mistä suuret muutokset johtuvat ja miten niitä voisi ymmärtää?Elämme epävarmuuden aikaa.Ilmastonmuutos, luontokato, koronavirus, Brexitja Ukrainan sotaovat osoittaneet, kuinka nopeasti ja usein ennakoimattomasti koko maailmaa koskettavat kriisit syntyvät ja eskaloituvat.Maailma on murroksessa, eikä edes asiantuntijoilla ole riittävää ymmärrystä siitä, mitä ympärillämme tapahtuu. Kyseessä on laajempi systeeminen muutos. Mistä muutokset juontavat juurensa ja miten niitä voisi ymmärtää? Yhtenä syynä tietämättömyyteemme ja avuttomuuteemme saattaa olla reduktionistinen tapa ymmärtää ilmiöitä ja niiden muutosta.Kirjan 12 artikkelia avaa systeemiajattelun lähtökohtia, lisää ymmärrystä ilmiöiden taustalla olevasta keskinäisriippuvuudesta, kertoo mistä kompleksisuusajattelussa on kyse ja tarjoaa välineitä systeemisen tulkinnan ja analyysin tekemiselle. Systeemistä muutosta tarkastellaan yhteiskunnan, organisaatioiden ja yksilöiden näkökulmista.Kirja soveltuu sekä oppikirjaksi että yhteiskunnallista muutosta seuraavien lukijoiden peruslukemistoksi. Kirjan kirjoittajat ovat Suomen johtavia systeemisen muutoksen tulkkeja, tutkijoita, kehittäjiä ja kouluttajia.

As digitalization and social media are increasingly blurring the boundaries between traditional societal, political, and economic institutions, this book provides a cross-disciplinary examination of value co-creation. From various standpoints, it examines how institutions contribute to service ecosystems and how digitalization is transforming value co-creation in these ecosystems. Further, the book shares new perspectives on relational dynamics among government, companies, and citizens. These insights fill the gaps between service science and political science by integrating institutional logics into the concept of value co-creation.The book subsequently examines society as an interaction space. Topics discussed include the new logic and transformation mechanisms of economic activities, citizen participation, governance, and policy-making in the face of technological innovations, market-based reforms, and the risk of disconnect between citizens and policy-making. Here the focus is on value co-creation in complex adaptive systems where institutions, individuals, and businesses negotiate value and interests in networked relations.In closing, the book presents a range of empirical case studies on value co-creation, which provide examples of active networked citizenship, innovative governance and policy-making, democratic leadership, and trust-building dialogue among institutions. The studies address the context of Nordic countries, recognized as world-leading democracies. Pursuing a systems approach, the book articulates a social reality composed of interacting and interconnected elements that cannot be captured with only micro or macro levels of analysis. Service ecosystems are considered as configurations of people and technologies embedded in institutionalized rules, cultural meanings, and practices, offering valuable insights into the service-centered view of markets and society. Given the breadth and depth of its coverage, the book offers a valuable resource for all students and scholars interested in understanding and envisioning the future democratic landscape.
