This book provides an in-depth analysis of UK-US intelligence
cooperation in the post-9/11 world.
Seeking to connect an analysis of intelligence liaison with the
wider realm of Anglo-American Relations, the book draws on a wide
range of interviews and consultations with key actors in both
countries. The book is centred around two critical and empirical
case studies, focusing on the interactions on the key issues of
counterterrorism and weapons of mass destruction (WMD)
counter-proliferation. These case studies provide substantive
insights into a range of interactions such as 9/11, the 7/7 London
bombings, the A.Q. Khan nuclear network, the prelude to the 2003
Iraq War, extraordinary rendition and special forces deployments.
Drawing on over 60 interviews conducted in the UK and US with
prominent decision-makers and practitioners, these issues are
examined in the contemporary historical context, with the main
focus being on the years 2000-05.
This book will be of much interest to students of intelligence
studies, foreign policy, security studies and International
Relations in general.
