Contrary to popular assumption, the development of stronger
oversight mechanisms actually leads to greater secrecy rather than
the reverse. When Should State Secrets Stay Secret? examines modern
trends in intelligence oversight development by focusing on how
American oversight mechanisms combine to bolster an internal
security system and thus increase the secrecy of the intelligence
enterprise. Genevieve Lester uniquely examines how these oversight
mechanisms have developed within all three branches of government,
how they interact, and what types of historical pivot points have
driven change among them. She disaggregates the concept of
accountability into a series of specified criteria in order to
grapple with these pivot points. This book concludes with a
discussion of a series of normative questions, suggesting ways to
improve oversight mechanisms based on the analytical criteria laid
out in the analysis. It also includes a chapter on the workings of
the CIA to which a number of CIA officers contributed.
