Edward A. Corcoran
Strategies in a New Century
A strategic assessment of the evolving natural, internal, and external threats facing the United States.

The Framework
The book organizes risk across three domains. Each is distinct, yet each operates within the same strategic landscape.

Threat Category
Disasters, environmental events, and destabilizing conditions that challenge national resilience.

Threat Category
Domestic fractures, institutional strain, and structural vulnerabilities within the nation.

Threat Category
Foreign pressures, geopolitical competition, and security risks beyond U.S. borders.
About the Book
Written in a measured, policy-minded voice, the book argues that the United States needs a fuller method for understanding the risks shaping its future.
Threats & Challenges examines a strategic blind spot in American statecraft: the nation has security doctrine, but no truly comprehensive method for assessing the full range of pressures shaping national resilience.
Rather than treating danger only as the product of hostile actors, the book argues for a broader framework that accounts for natural disruption, internal strain, and external pressure in one integrated national view.
