Zusammenfassung: | This book critically examines the weaknesses of American intelligence led by the Central Intelligence Agency in informing presidential decision making on issues of war and peace. It evaluates the CIA's strategic intelligence performance during the Cold War and post-Cold War periods as a foundation for examining the root causes of intelligence failures surrounding the September 11th attacks and assessments of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction programs in the run up to the Iraq War. The book probes these intelligence failures, which lie in the CIA's poor human intelligence collection and analysis practices. The book argues that none of the post-9/11 intelligence reforms have squarely addressed these root causes of strategic intelligence failure and it recommends measures for redressing these dangerous vulnerabilities in American security. |

The book probes these intelligence failures, which lie in the CIA's poor human intelligence collection and analysis practices. The book argues that none of the post-9/11 intelligence reforms have squarely addressed these root causes of strategic intelligence failure and it recommends measures for redressing these dangerous vulnerabilities in American security.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="610" ind1="1" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">United States.</subfield><subfield code="b">Central Intelligence Agency.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79099301</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="610" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">United States.</subfield><subfield code="b">Central Intelligence Agency</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="610" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">USA</subfield><subfield code="b">Central Intelligence Agency</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/1021698-4</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Intelligence service</subfield><subfield code="z">United States.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85067179</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Terrorism</subfield><subfield code="x">Government policy</subfield><subfield code="z">United States.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Terrorisme</subfield><subfield code="x">Politique gouvernementale</subfield><subfield code="z">États-Unis.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">POLITICAL SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Political Freedom & Security</subfield><subfield code="x">Intelligence.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">TRUE CRIME</subfield><subfield code="x">Espionage.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Intelligence service</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Terrorism</subfield><subfield code="x">Government policy</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">United States</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJtxgQXMWqmjMjjwXRHgrq</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Underrättelseverksamhet</subfield><subfield code="z">Förenta staterna.</subfield><subfield code="2">sao</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Electronic books.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Electronic books.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">Sharpening strategic intelligence (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCFwbVr3YJCv7DpF8J4JrHK</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Russell, Richard L., 1961-</subfield><subfield code="t">Sharpening strategic intelligence.</subfield><subfield code="d">Cambridge ;

Russell. Cambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2007. 1 online resource (xii, 214 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references (pages 193-205) and index. Strategic intelligence and American statecraft -- Debunking Cold War myths -- Stumbling after the Cold War -- Blundering in the "War on Terrorism" -- Spies who do not deliver -- Analysts who are not experts -- Facing future strategic intelligence challenges. Print version record. This book critically examines the weaknesses of American intelligence led by the Central Intelligence Agency in informing presidential decision making on issues of war and peace. It evaluates the CIA's strategic intelligence performance during the Cold War and post-Cold War periods as a foundation for examining the root causes of intelligence failures surrounding the September 11th attacks and assessments of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction programs in the run up to the Iraq War. The book probes these intelligence failures, which lie in the CIA's poor human intelligence collection and analysis practices. The book argues that none of the post-9/11 intelligence reforms have squarely addressed these root causes of strategic intelligence failure and it recommends measures for redressing these dangerous vulnerabilities in American security.
