With its head office in London, and satellite office in Qatar and Washington, DC, The Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) "is an independent think tank engaged in cutting edge defence and security research."[1] Published six times a year, the RUSI Journal is the Institute's flagship publication on national and international defence and security issues.

History

Founded in 1831 by the Duke of Wellington it is based in the centre of Whitehall. It states that "its original mission "was to study naval and military science, what Clausewitz called the art of war. It still does so." This has extended into areas of defence management and defense procurement. In recent years it has broadened its remit " to include all issues of defence and security, including terrorism and the ideologies which foster it."

Its special guests in recent years have included President Bush, the Prime Minister, the secretary general of NATO and the Director General of the Security Service. The Chief of Defence Staff traditionally speaks at RUSI once a year.
