RESEARCH PRINCIPLES
Observation, annual research, fact-checking, expert review and publication are distinct states. The program does not reduce globalization to a single financial or media metric.
500 observation subjects establish a broad and dynamic field of inquiry.
200 annual subjects enter structured evidence and case development.
The target of 100 cases is published only after verification and review.
Case IDs, evidence and annual versions remain traceable over time.
