During the Second World War and the subsequent Cold War, foreign
agents conducted intelligence-gathering, sabotage, and subversive
operations inside neutral countries aimed at damaging their
opponents' interests. The essays contained in this collection
analyze the risks of espionage operations on neutral soil as well
as the dangers their covert activities posed for the governments of
neutral states. In striving to avoid involvement in the firing line
of the Second World War or the front line of the Cold War, the
contributors argue that neutral states developed security policies
that focused on protecting their own sovereignty without provoking
overt hostility from any of the great powers. This collection
describes how the warring parties engaged in competition on neutral
territory and analyzes how neutral governments rose to the
existential challenge posed by international spies, their own venal
officials, and even foreign assassins.
