Position2026
- Where does military advantage actually come from now — the lab or the commercial economy?
- Does reaching into the civilian economy automatically produce military strength?
- Can a spillover be a sign that the fusion failed rather than succeeded?
- Why does Europe generate world-class innovation and then lose it?
- What does it reveal that EU defence law runs under the competitiveness article, not a security one?
- Is the shell shortage underinvestment, or proof of something structural?
- Is Europe's problem how much it spends, or how it spends?
- Why does pouring money into a fragmented market raise prices instead of buying capability?
- Why does experts disagreeing on the cure prove the constraint is political?
Thesis2026
- Are AI's ethical failures defects to be patched, or products of the architecture itself?
- If not the algorithm and not the institution, where do the harms actually originate?
- Does more data produce better outcomes — or just confirm who was already being watched?
- Is the AI the origin of the harm, or only an amplifier of what the architecture already did?
- Why can't a better algorithm or a component-level audit ever locate the problem?
- Who decides what "counts" when a system turns categories into things?
- What does it mean that the same data and prompt yield different outputs under hidden settings?
- Can deliberate friction be designed into a system — and why is it a precondition for regulation, not a substitute?
- What can a small, fully traceable build (the Noor System) reveal that a real platform hides?
Position2025
- Why is influencer marketing more dangerous than a traditional gambling ad?
- Why do smaller influencers carry more persuasive weight than big ones?
- Why do existing EU directives fail to catch influencer content at all?
- Is the real failure missing rules, or the failure to enforce rights that already exist?
- Can digital-literacy education alone fix it — or would an outright ban?
- How do you protect minors without censoring the open internet?
- Should the penalty fall on the influencer or the sponsor?
Research2026
- Is the phone at the table an intrusion, or already part of the interaction?
- Is group phone use an individual failure of self-control, or a collective negotiation?
- Why does one person reaching for a phone make everyone else do the same?
- Why do people narrate their phone use out loud — "it's my mom"?
- How does sharing a screen become "moral camouflage" for private scrolling?
- Why does no one confront the phone use they all take part in?
- Is disconnection all-or-nothing, or something partial and constantly renegotiated?
Research2025
- What actually separates a revolution from a technological upgrade?
- If there's a third category between the two, what is an "emergence"?
- Did the printing press change the world equally, or only for a few?
- Does any communication technology ever reach truly universal impact?
- Did the digital revolution change how we communicate, or who controls communication?
- Does technology drive social change, or does society shape the technology?
- Why does mislabelling an evolution as a revolution actually matter?
