This book on intelligence analysis written by intelligence expert
Dr. Stephen Marrin argues that scholarship can play a valuable role
in improving intelligence analysis. Improving intelligence analysis
requires bridging the gap between scholarship and practice.
Compared to the more established academic disciplines of political
science and international relations, intelligence studies
scholarship is generally quite relevant to practice. Yet a
substantial gap exists nonetheless. Even though there are many
intelligence analysts, very few of them are aware of the various
writings on intelligence analysis which could help them improve
their own processes and products. If the gap between scholarship
and practice were to be bridged, practitioners would be able to
access and exploit the literature in order to acquire new ways to
think about, frame, conceptualize, and improve the analytic process
and the resulting product. This volume contributes to the broader
discussion regarding mechanisms and methods for improving
intelligence analysis processes and products. It synthesizes these
articles into a coherent whole, linking them together through
common themes, and emphasizes the broader vision of intelligence
analysis in the introduction and conclusion chapters. The book will
be of great interest to students of intelligence studies, strategic
studies, US national security, US foreign policy, security studies
and political science in general,as well as professional
intelligence analysts and managers.
