THE AMERICAN SOLDIERS WHO FOUGHT DURING THE PHILIPPINE WAR BETWEEN 1899 AND 1902 HAD TO DISCOVER THE IMPORTANCE OF INTELLIGENCE IN LOW-INTENSITY CONFLICT THROUGH BITTER EXPERIENCE. FOR MUCH OF THE WAR, AMERICAN INTELLIGENCE WAS AS DIFFUSE, UNCONNECTED AND DISORGANIZED AS THE RESISTANCE SOLDIERS ENCOUNTERED IN THE FIELD. AS A RESULT OF INDIFFERENCE AND MISPLACED OPTIMISM AT HEADQUARTERS, THE U.S. ARMY FAILED TO CREATE A COHERENT PROGRAM TO GATHER AND DISPERSE INTELLIGENCE FOR ALMOST TWO YEARS AFTER THE OUTBREAK OF FIGHTING. THIS NEGLECT, IN TURN, LED TO AN EXTENSIVE INTEREST IN LOCAL INTELLIGENCE BY FILED OFFICERS WHO, ALMOST BY ACCIDENT OBTAINED INFORMATION ON GUERRILLA LEADERS AND STRONGHOLDS OR FOCUSED ON THE VITAL GUERRILLA INFRASTRUCTURE. HOWEVER, THE LACK OF CENTRALIZATION BECAME A POSITIVE BOON AS UNKNOWN AND UNTRAINED OFFICERS WERE ABLE TO STEP INTO THE VOID AND DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT INTELLIGENCE METHODS SINGULARLY WELL ADAPTED TO DEAL WITH A GUERRILLA ORGANIZATION.

The article in the first part outlines the current discussion of the state of training under cultural intelligence, including definitions and examples of possible interdictions of the bad players. The second part describes the attributes and attitudes of Border Guard and Police officers after cultural intelligence courses, defining and applying the concepts towards internal security with a focus on Cultural Identity, "what makes a person tick." An empirical study consisting of written reports was conducted over a three-year period and compiled to reflect attitudes towards immigration and radicalization in the EU.

This memoir of a CIA operations officer captures the spirit of the early years of the Agency, a period sometimes described as its 'finest hours.' Using the alias 'St. Martin,' Stuart Methven served in the CIA from the 1950s through the 1970s. The book opens by describing the author's training in the clandestine arts and subsequent assignment to Asia in a country he calls 'Bushido.' There he is involved in numerous operations, including one that takes him under the ocean, and earns his case officer's 'brevet.' A nation-building program in 'Cham' follows, which begins well enough and includes hi

MANY ANALYSTS ARGUE THAT BETTER INTELLIGENCE COLLECTION IS NECESSARY TO IMPROVE THE UNITED STATES' ABILITY TO PREVENT, DETER AND DEFEAT WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION (WMD) TERRORISM, BUT FEW GIVE ANY CONCRETE ANALYSIS OF EXACTLY WHAT VARIOUS TYPES OF INTELLIGENCE CAN CONTRIBUTE TO BETTER UNDERSTANDING THE WMD TERRORIST THREAT. THIS STUDY OUTLINES THE EMERGING WMD TERRORIST THREAT AND DISCUSSES THE RESPECTIVE CONTRIBUTIONS THAT TECHNICAL, HUMAN AND OPEN SOURCE INTELLIGENCE CAN MAKE IN ASSESSING THE VARIOUS STAGES OF A WMD TERRORIST ACT. ACCORDING TO THIS ANALYSIS, NEITHER IMAGERY NOR TRADITIONAL HUMAN COLLECTION IS CAPABLE OF PROVIDING THE CRITICAL INFORMATION NEEDED BY POLICY MAKERS. RATHER INFORMATION COLLECTED BY CASE OFFICERS WORKING UNDER UNOFFICIAL COVER AND BY CLANDESTINE MEANS OFFER THE BEST CHANCE OF IDENTIFYING GROUPS INTERESTED IN PRODUCING AND USING WMD.

Circle of Treason details the authors' personal involvement in the hunt for and eventual identification of a Soviet mole in the CIA during the 1980s and 1990s. The search for the presumed traitor was necessitated by the loss of almost all of the CIA's large stable of Soviet intelligence officers working for the United States against their homeland. Aldrich Ames, a long-time acquaintance and co-worker of the authors in the Soviet-East European Division and Counterintelligence Center of CIA, turned out to be that mole. In April 1985 Ames walked in to the Soviet Embassy in Washington, D. C. an

"This edited text draws together the insights of numerous worldwide eminent academics to evaluate the condition of predictive policing and artificial intelligence (AI) as interlocked policy areas. Predictive and AI technologies are growing in prominence and at an unprecedented rate. Powerful digital crime mapping programmes are being used to identify crime hotspots in real-time, as pattern-matching and search algorithms are sorting through huge police databases filled with growing volumes of data in an effort to identify high-risk people, intelligence and evidence. Facial and vehicle recognition cameras are locating criminals as they move, while police services develop strategies informed by machine learning programmes and other kinds of predictive analytics. Many of these innovations are features of modern policing in the U.K, the U.S and Australia, among other jurisdictions. AI, in particular, promises to reduce unnecessary labour, speed up various forms of police work, encourage police organisations to more efficiently apportion their resources, and enable police officers to prevent crime and protect people from a variety of future harms. However, the promises of predictive and AI technologies and innovations do not always match reality. They often have significant weaknesses, come at a considerable cost and require challenging trade-offs to be made. Focusing on the U.K, the U.S. and Australia, this book explores themes of choice architecture, decision making, human rights, accountability and the rule of law, as well as future uses of AI and predictive technologies in various policing contexts. The text contributes to ongoing debates on the benefits and biases of predictive algorithms, big data sets, machine learning systems and broader policing strategies. Written in a clear and direct style, this book will appeal to students and scholars of policing, criminology, crime science, sociology, computer science, cognitive psychology and all those interested in the emergence of AI as a feature of contemporary policing"--
