Critical Dependencies publishes periodic bulletins, system studies, annual reviews, and long-form publications examining governance, resilience, and dependency across critical systems.
Publications are intended to provide a permanent archive of observations, patterns, and research developed through the work of this publication.
The archive will expand over time as new studies and bulletins are released.
Regular observations and notes examining recurring patterns across critical systems.
What happens when redundancy exists on paper but is weaker in practice: alternatives that look separate at the surface, yet converge on shared dependencies underneath.
This first bulletin looks at three patterns that continue to appear across critical systems: complexity, concentration, and the challenge of governing change over time.
Longer studies focusing on individual systems, governance structures, and resilience characteristics.
Future publications will appear here.
Periodic reviews examining long-term changes in dependency, concentration, and resilience.
No annual reviews are currently available.
Critical Dependencies maintains an open-access publication model. All bulletins, studies, and reviews are permanently archived and made freely available.
