Resilience and Resistance Studies

In 2025, the 草莓视频's (USF) Global and National Security Institute (GNSI), in partnership with USF's Human Dynamics and Social Behavior Network (USEHDN), established an academic effort to study irregular warfare, intrastate conflict, and internationalized intrastate conflict - under the name of Resilience and Resistance Studies. Firstly, Resilience and Resistance Studies incorporates the previously developed counterinsurgency analysis under the name of the Study of Internal Conflict (SOIC). Second, it includes US's participation in the Research Support Services Partnership under Arizona State University (ASU).
Following these first two US research achievements, Resilience and Resistance Studies intends to widen the aperture on intrastate conflict with other perspectives, including but not limited to:

• Examining the success or failure of nonviolent resistance effecting governmental change
• Examining the role of strategic competitors in deciding the outcomes of intrastate conflict
• Producing a web-based datacentric measurements of contemporary resilience of endogenous systems of governance and resistance to the same (i.e. a resiliency index and a resistance index)
• Creating a web-based index of nonstate entities, including their relational power with each other, as well as their sponsorships from external partners (i.e. a nonstate entity index).

To achieve the ambitious aims of Resilience and Resistance Studies, US aims to collaborate with other academic institutions within the U.S. Government as well as academia to ensure the appropriate representation and agency for genuine collaboration. This program endeavors to solicit research that contributes to knowledge on internal conflict from scholars, researchers, practitioners, graduate students, and bachelor students.
