There are currently four series published by the NDC Research Division:
The War Series: focuses on possible trajectories of ongoing or possible future conflicts, including how and where actors fight.
The Strategy Series: provides the platform for concepts, doctrines, strategies, or other frameworks that leaders and states use to make sense of how to deal with a larger goal or problem.
The Future Series: zeroes in on possible future developments that matter to NATO outside of specific wars and conflicts.
The Hindsight Series: looks at past futures and what we can learn from them to inform our own foresight analysis.
