dal sito "ufficiale" di Stratfor, l’auto presentazione:
Stratfor is a subscription-based provider of geopolitical analysis.
Individual and corporate subscribers gain a thorough understanding of
international affairs, including what’s happening, why it’s happening,
and what will happen next.
Unlike traditional news outlets, Stratfor uses a unique,
intelligence-based approach to gathering information via rigorous
open-source monitoring and a global network of human sources. Analysts
then evaluate events looking through the objective lens of geopolitics.
Our goal is simple: to make the complexity of the world understandable
to an intelligent readership, without ideology, agenda or national bias.
