Meet Gregory Copley

Most geopolitical analysis is shallow, partisan, or flat-out wrong.

That's why I created Strategic Policy in 1972. It's the only unclassified report dealing with global strategic issues from the perspective of grand strategy, designed specifically for intelligent, internationally-focused readers who want to understand the “big picture”, but in detail.

I'm Gregory Copley, and on top of writing and editing Strategic Policy for the last 54 years, I've authored or co-authored 37 books on strategic philosophy, geopolitics, energy, aviation, and other topics, and have advised numerous heads of government and heads of services on strategic matters.

Read and Trusted at the Absolute Highest Levels:

Defense & Foreign Affairs Strategic Policy is “indispensable to the running of the White House”.
Don Regan, Chief of Staff to US President Ronald Reagan

Defense & Foreign Affairs Strategic Policy “has neglected no spot on the globe in your efforts to inform your readers of the international defense picture.”
Hon. Gen. Alexander M. Haig, Jr., former US Secretary of State; former Supreme Allied Commander, Europe (SACEUR); and former Chief of Staff to the US President

“Copley is our only living grand strategist.”
