Xinanigans
The public field-analysis project behind the Governance Warfare framework.
What Is Xinanigans?
Xinanigans is the public field-analysis project where the Governance Warfare framework is developed, tested, and refined.
It began as a weekly intelligence brief on China’s strategic behavior: internal doctrine, governance design, elite decision-making, and the systems that shape how Beijing acts before those actions become visible as policy or crisis.
The project now serves as the public record behind the framework’s development. China remains the primary case, but the method extends to broader strategic competition wherever power moves through institutions, administrative systems, and structural control.
While others report on what China did, I trace the systems that made the move legible.
