Guide to the Analysis of Insurgency [2012]
"This Guide provides definitions, a series of indicators, and an analytic framework designed to assist in evaluating an insurgency. Analysts with knowledge of the political, military, cultural, and socioeconomic characteristics of a specific insurgency will find these definitions and the framework helpful in analyzing the conflict. […] No two insurgencies are identical, and this Guide is not intended to provide a one-size-fits-all template. No insurgency is unique in all aspects, however, and most share some combination of characteristics, tactics, and objectives. Most pass through similar stages of development during their life cycle. These commonalities are the focus of this Guide, but analysts should note that the specific insurgencies they are examining will probably not exhibit all of the characteristics or undertake all of the activities addressed in the Guide."

U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Language Access Plan
"This Language Access Plan implements DHS's language access policy and establishes a system within DHS to implement Executive Order 13166, Improving Access to Services for Persons with Limited English Proficiency (LEP) (August 11, 2000), which requires, among other things, that each Federal department and agency 'examine the services it provides to LEP persons and develop and implement a system by which LEP persons have 'meaningful access' to those services without unduly burdening the fundamental mission of the agency.' In addition to describing DHS's current language access activities, the plan includes steps to improve and increase language services for LEP individuals in operations, services, activities, and programs across DHS."
