This book traces the evolution of FBI spying from 1965 to the present, through the eyes of those under investigation, and through numerous FBI documents, never used before in scholarly writing, that were recently declassified using the Freedom of Information Act or released during litigation (Greenberg v. FBI).

In recent years, the procedural rules of global governance institutions have come under scrutiny from scholars worldwide and have been conceptualized as akin to domestic administrative law. However, one question has so far not been addressed: who shapes this procedure and why? In the present work, Isabel Lischewski develops a simple matrix connecting procedure and state interest. When this matrix is applied to a sample of forty diverse institutions, fascinating patterns emerge, which are further explored through in-depth case studies. It is shown that states prefer to balance sovereignty preservation through procedure with the costs it entails. Thus, normative considerations are not the predominant basis on which this procedure is designed. The research provides original insights into the landscape of global governance procedure and cautions against a notion of "apolitical" administration law.

Aus demokratie- und elitentheoretischer Perspektive entfaltet die Autorin ihre Argumentation zur engen Verbindung zwischen Verwaltungs- und politischer Elite in Israel. Die administrative Elite (Inhaber von Spitzenpositionen in der öffentlichen Verwaltung) verfügt zwar über beträchtliche Macht, ist aber von der politischen Elite abhängig. Seit der vorstaatlichen Ära stellt sich die Verwaltungselite in den Dienst der politischen Rechten. Zunächst profitierte vor allem die Mapai-Partei, seit den 1970er Jahren sind es die religiösen Parteien, und hier vor allem die ultra-orthodoxen Parteien Yahadut Hatura (früher: Agudat Yisrael) und Shas.
