I research how civilizations function. In 2017, I founded Bismarck Analysis, a consulting firm that investigates the political and institutional landscape of society.

There has never been an immortal society. Regardless of how technologically advanced our own society is, it is unlikely to be an exception. To secure a positive common future that defies these odds, we must understand the hidden forces that shape society.

I write and speak on history, institutions, and strategy with a focus on exceptional leaders that create new social and political forms. I have systematized this approach as “Great Founder Theory”.
