About the Book

The goal of "Topics and approaches to studying intelligence" is to bring into sharper focus the evolving nature of intelligence studies, which is in the midst of a period of significant expansion that is taking place across a number of dimensions. Working on this foundation of past and contemporary analytic intelligence studies, the chapters in "Topics and approaches to studying intelligence" highlight areas of debate and disagreement, provide insight into new areas of study and broaden the methodological toolset used by researchers. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches investigate analysis, alliances, competitive/private sector intelligence, gendered practices of intelligence agencies, the nature of intelligence studies scholarship, accreditation, intelligence disclosure for diplomacy, and the sharing of nuclear-related intelligence

Review :
Since the 1980s, Intelligence Studies has blossomed into a rich field of intellectual analysis. In the 1960s and 1970s, one or two books a year might appear on the subject and almost no scholarly articles. Today a flood of books emerges annually, and several journals are solely dedicated to this subject. And properly so, since intelligence---knowing about and helping to thwart threats---provides the first line of defense for a nation. Further, improper intelligence activities can become a significant threat to civil liberties and has attracted serious study because of this concern as well. In this outstanding volume of essays, Andrew M. Macpherson and Glenn P. Hastedt, well-regarded researchers, have assembled a first-rate team of essayists who present a range of thoughtful probes into the various dimensions of Intelligence Studies. This is an important book, one sure to attract a wide audience in what has become a core discipline within the International Affairs curriculum of universities, colleges, and government training programs.
