Intelligence and Information Policy for National Security

Key Terms and Concepts

Jan Goldman and Susan Maret

Building on Goldman’s Words of Intelligence and Maret’s On Their Own Terms this is a one-stop reference tool for anyone studying and working in intelligence, security, and information policy. This comprehensive resource defines key terms of the theoretical, conceptual, and organizational aspects of intelligence and national security information policy. It explains security classifications, surveillance, risk, technology, as well as intelligence operations, strategies, boards and organizations, and methodologies. It also defines terms created by the U.S. legislative, regulatory, and policy process, and routinized by various branches of the U.S. government. These terms pertain to federal procedures, policies, and practices involving the information life cycle, national security controls over information, and collection and analysis of intelligence information.

This work is intended for intelligence students and professionals at all levels, as well as information science students dealing with such issues as the Freedom of Information Act.

Front Cover Description
Words are tools and this book is an essential toolbox for anyone wanting to understand, and influence, public policy on intelligence, secrecy and privacy. Based on years of research, Goldman and Maret have collaborated here to produce the definitive analysis of the official meanings of key concepts from the National Security world. Activists, scholars, and concerned citizens can all benefit from the careful work these two scholars have done to illuminate a part of government operations that is quite consciously kept in the shadows. Casting light on the hidden assumptions and unchallenged framings of the secret world of the Deep State, this book is an invaluable contribution to the struggle to sustain and expand our fragile democracy.
