This book offers a new research agenda for intelligence studies in
contemporary times. In contrast to Intelligence Studies (IS), whose
aim has largely been to improve the performance of national
security services and assist in policy making, this book takes the
investigation of the new professionals and everyday practices of
intelligence as the immediate point of departure. Starting from the
observation that intelligence today is increasingly about
counter-terrorism, crime control, surveillance, and other
security-related issues, this book adopts a transdisciplinary
approach for studying the shifting logics of intelligence, how it
has come to involve an expanding number of empirical sites, such as
the police, local community, prison and the Internet, as well as a
corresponding multiplicity of new actors in these domains. Shifting
the focus away from traditional spies and Anglo-American
intelligence services, this book addresses the transformations of
contemporary intelligence through empirically detailed and
theoretically innovative analyses, making a key contribution to
existing scholarship. This book will be of much interest to
students of intelligence studies, critical security studies,
foreign policy, and International Relations.
