Description: Intelligence and Information Policy for National Security
Intelligence and Information Policy for National Security
Worldcat Site
Words are tools and this book is an essential toolbox for anyone wanting to understand, and influence, public policy on intelligence, secrecy and privacy. Based on years of research, Goldman and Maret have collaborated here to produce the definitive analysis of the official meanings of key concepts from the National Security world. Activists, scholars, and concerned citizens can all benefit from the careful work these two scholars have done to illuminate a part of government operations that is quite consciously kept in the shadows. Casting light on the hidden assumptions and unchallenged framings of the secret world of the Deep State, this book is an invaluable contribution to the struggle to sustain and expand our fragile democracy.

Series Editor Foreword
Intelligence and Information Policy for National Security

As a young intelligence analyst, I took for granted that my readers knew the difference between these two words. For the record, “analysis is what you...

This book owes an intellectual debt to Raymond Williams, who forged the way in understanding how human beings, language, and society are inextricably linked.

CADASTRAL DATA For the U.S. Intelligence Community, analysis of heretofore unavailable layers of cadastral data has the potential to identify a group’s ideologies and economic pillars.
