Since the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on United States
soil, the intelligence community has been scrutinized on how it
performs its functions. Consequently, the 9/11 Commission made
several recommendations on how to improve the quality of
intelligence analysis. Those charges and the United States'
involvement in a war in Iraq have spawned additional charges of the
politicization of intelligence. All this is being played out as the
Intelligence Community has reformed and reconfigured itself with
newly created departments supported by an expanded and
inexperienced workforce that was never envisioned when the
intelligence community was formally established in 1947. First
published in the 1970s, the classic book An Introduction to
Intelligence Research and Analysis was used by intelligence
analysts to track and monitor the Communist threat. Although
today's environment has changed considerably since the Cold War,
intelligence analysts still need to understand the basics of
intelligence analysis. The book focuses on how to do research, what
qualities are needed to be an intelligence analyst, and what
methods can be employed to help in producing products. To avoid
politicization, intelligence analysts should strive to become more
transparent in their methodology of how they arrived at their
conclusions. Intelligence Research and Analysis provides several
methods to assist in that end.
