This book provides an institutional costs framework for
intelligence and security communities to examine the factors that
can encourage or obstruct cooperation. The governmental functions
of security and intelligence require various organisations to
interact in a symbiotic way. These organisations must constantly
negotiate with each other to establish who should address which
issue and with what resources. By coupling adapted versions of
transaction costs theories with socio-political perspectives, this
book provides a model to explain why some cooperative endeavours
are successful, whilst others fail. This framework is applied to
counterterrorism and defence intelligence in the UK and the US to
demonstrate that the view of good cooperation in the former and
poor cooperation in the latter is overly simplistic. Neither is
necessarily more disposed to behave cooperatively than the other;
rather, the institutional costs created by their respective
organisational architectures incentivise different cooperative
behaviour in different circumstances. This book will be of much
interest to students of intelligence studies, organisational
studies, politics and security studies.
