Acts of terrorist violence and foreign espionage may pose a serious
threat to the security of the United States; yet recent disclosures
demonstrate the great risk in giving an agency such as the FBI
unlimited authority for gathering intelligence about terrorists and
spies. Taking into account the findings and recommendations of the
post-Watergate inquiries into FBI operations, John Elliff analyzes
the legal and policy questions posed by a "security police" in a
nation committed to constitutional government and the rule of law.
The author draws on his experience both as principal consultant for
the Police Foundation's research on FBI intelligence operations and
as head of the Church committee's congressional staff task force on
domestic intelligence. He examines the changes made in the
structure and policy framework for FBI intelligence operations,
including issues not fully resolved by reorganization and new
guidelines. He also covers the standards and procedures for dealing
with misconduct by FBI personnel. Dr. Elliff concludes that the
present restrictions on FBI activities are necessary and that close
supervision and control by the Attorney General will allow the
Bureau to operate effectively without depriving law-abiding persons
of their privacy or their freedom. Originally published in 1979.
