“The Study of Intelligence in Theory and Practice”
Transformation of secret intelligence’s role in the 21st century (post 9/11 terrorist attacks &
justification of the 2003 war on Iraq).
➔ Continued to gather momentum.
➔ Growth as a focus of academic enquiry.

Scope & Focus: What is intelligence? How do we study it?
Intelligence: Process of gathering, analysing & making use of information. A tool of foreign/domestic
& defence policymaking (for the execution of policy & to inform policy).
➔ 3 separate associated things (Kent):
1. Knowledge.
2. Type of organisation that produces that knowledge
3. Activities pursued by that organisation
➔ Distinction between intelligence vs. government intelligence (Herman):
◆ Government Intelligence: Specialised organisations that have that name & what
they do/produce.
➔ 3 distinct perspectives:
1. First Approach (International Historians): Explains the relationship between
organisational structure & policy making, intelligence as a means of acquiring new
information to explain policy decisions in peace & war.
● Focus on:
○ Process of intelligence collection.
○ Origin of individual sources of intelligence.
○ Precise use that is made of intelligence as it travels up the chain of
decision.
● Intelligence as a tool of foreign & defence policymaking.
2. Second Approach: Establishes general models that explain success/failure in the
intelligence process (focus on levels of analysis & decision). Aim to analyse the
personal, political & institutional biases that characterise intelligence organisations.
● Intelligence as a tool of foreign & defence policymaking.
3. Third Approach: Political function of intelligence as a means of state control.
● Use of intelligence sources in understanding the role of ideology & state
power in political, social & cultural life.

Intelligence & the Study of International Relations
Failure to integrate intelligence studies into the mainstream research in international relations (IR).
➔ Interest confined mainly to scholars working on theories of decision-making.
➔ Neglect in other areas of IR (humanitarian intervention, democratic peace debates, attempts
at regime change).
➔ Solutions:
◆ Need for different conceptual approaches to understand security threats & radical
changes in the way intelligence agencies process knowledge on these threats.
◆ Less hierarchical intelligence communities, based on:
● The concept of information ‘networks ‘.

, 3


● ‘Open’ sources of information.

Speaking ‘Truth unto Power’ or ‘Power unto Truth’?
Relationship between power & knowledge.
➔ The image of an independent & apolitical intelligence community = questioned.
➔ Idea of speaking truth unto power has clear relevance to debates over the relationship
between government & academia.

Dark Sides of Moons
Issues of strategic surprise & intelligence failure have loomed large in the evolution of the study of
intelligence.
➔ Need for intelligence communities to:
◆ Pay closer attention to the many dimensions of global insecurity.
◆ Adapt to new political problems facing world politics.

Misleading distinction between gathering intelligence & intervening in other states’ internal affairs.

Intelligence & Ethics
Intelligence’s ethical & legal dimensions are rarely analysed → need for an explicit concern with
moral issues (Herman).
➔ Intelligence requires ‘a similar ethical foundation’ to the use of armed force (Herman).

Popular Culture & Intelligence
Popular culture has played an important role in shaping official & public attitudes towards
intelligence (fiction provides a range of ethical representations of intelligence).

A Final ‘Missing Dimension’: National & International Intelligence Cooperation
Another neglected aspect = cooperation between different intelligence services at the:
● National level = efficient cooperation between secret services is crucial to the effective
exploitation of intelligence.
● International level = has received more attention from historians (e.g., Anglo-America
‘intelligence alliance’).
