This paper provides basic knowledge for anyone who is doing or interested in strategic and security studies. After an overview on the term intelligence and the topics of intelligence studies, the structure and rationale of intelligence communities and cooperation between intelligence services is presented, followed by a discussion of the legal and political dimension and the relationship to media.
