CiNii 図書 - Global intelligence : the world's secret services today

The CIA, the KGB, MI5, Mossad, Boss, Savak, Dina - the names read like a rollcall of the seamier side of history in the years following the Second World War. Today the Cold War is dead; there are fewer dictatorships; and 9.11 has created a whole new raison d'etre for covert action. This title: explains the impact of the war on terrorism on the world's secret services and intelligence agencies; describes how ultra-modern new technologies have vastly increased their power to spy and eavesdrop; reveals the changing priorities and working methods of intelligence services around the world; important issues raised include the new roles of the secret services as they target 'rogue states', 'the war on drugs', and 'terrorists'. The authors explore the unsolved contradiction between secretive and unaccountable agencies operating on the fringes of the law, and the requirements of a free and democratic society.

Terrorism: Globalisation's siamese twin? Technologies of surveillance. US Intelligence: back to the future? The EU - new purpose, old methods? Russia: from KGB to FSB and back again? Israel: the Living Security Dilemma? Intelligence in the South: the growth of the virtual state.

The Cold War has long gone. Now the "War on Terror" is upon us. What are the secret services-the CIA, the KGB, MI5, Mossad, Boss, Savak, Dina-doing these days? Global Intelligence explains how the war on terrorism has altered the context for the murky world of secret services and intelligence agencies. The CIA and other U.S. agencies, the FSB (successor to the KGB) in Russia, Western Europe's secret services, Mossad in Israel, and the diverse security services in developing countries continue to operate, albeit with changing priorities and working methods. These shifting means of working, coupled with ultra-modern technologies, allow for more invasive spying in a global and domestic context. This up-to-date account raises important issues, including the new roles the secret services have found for themselves as they target "rogue states,"the war on drugs," and "terrorists." Most important of all, its authors explore the unsolved contradiction between the world of these secretive and unaccountable agencies operating on the fringes of the law, and the requirements of a free and democratic society. There is, they conclude, "no easy walk to freedom."

The CIA, the KGB, MI5, Mossad, Boss, Savak, Dina - the names read like a rollcall of the seamier side of history in the years following the Second World War. Today the Cold War is dead; there are fewer dictatorships; and 9/11 has created a whole new raison d'etre for covert action. This book explains how the war on terrorism provides a wholly new context for the murky world secret services and intelligence agencies operate in, and describes in detail how ultra-modern new technologies have vastly increased their power to spy abroad and eavesdrop at home. This up-to-date account raises important issues, including the new roles the secret services have found for themselves as they target 'rogue states', 'the war on drugs', and 'terrorists'. Most important of all, its authors explore the unsolved contradiction between the world of these secretive and unaccountable agencies operating on the fringes of the law, and the requirements of a free and democratic society.
