We are honored to have our work acknowledged by the United States House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party. Their recent press release highlights the critical findings from our January report entitled “Funding of the Iran-China Strategic Partnership via the U.S. Capital Markets”, which identified significant ties between Chinese companies and Iran’s military and energy sectors. Our research continues to underscore the importance of rigorous analysis and oversight in protecting global security interests.

Since the Prague Security Studies Institute published the report, "Suppliers in Chains: SHEIN's Troubling IPO," SHEIN’s prospects for a U.S.-based listing have dwindled. It is now expected to float an IPO on the London Stock Exchange, where it also faces headwinds. Our report highlighted SHEIN's concerning practices, including alleged human rights abuses, misleading the public, and poor adherence to standards of labor and product safety – corporate behavior which leaves it no place on any Western Exchange.

As the Members of the European Parliament’s ninth term closed their books, PSSI teamed up with Political Capital and partners to track the views of incumbent MEPs from the V4, Austria, Bulgaria and Romania on authoritarian regimes. We used qualitative and quantitative methods to build an accurate picture of MEPs’ positions on authoritarian countries. PSSI contributed to the effort with an analysis of Czech MEPs.

Slovenský informačný priestor je čoraz viac zaplavovaný dezinformáciami a manipuláciami. Veľkou motiváciou pre šírenie problematického obsahu môže byť vidina zisku. V tejto súvislosti sa často používa aj označenie obchod so strachom. 

Stále častěji se v médiích setkáváme s pojmem obchodníci se strachem. Jde o lidi, kterým jde o finanční zisk a pro dosažení svého cíle se nebojí využívat dezinformace. Jejich cíle se také běžně spojují s politickými ambicemi nebo touhou po pozornosti. Ve své komunikaci se proto spoléhají na dezinformace a zavádějící praktiky, které v lidech vyvolávají silné emoce, především strach a nenávist. Tyto praktiky využívají jako zkratku k co největší pozornosti, klikům – a co je hlavní, k penězům.
