This course analyzes the critical intelligence challenges facing the Nation through the perspective of the CIA's history. Students will examine the CIA’s record in mounting covert and paramilitary operations, providing timely intelligence to meet the urgent demands of policy makers, running sensitive penetrations of foreign governments, and establishing liaison with foreign intelligence services to enhance intelligence collection. The course will evaluate the harm caused to the CIA by recent security disclosures. Finally, the course will estimate the CIA’s success in meeting the challenges of the post-9/11 environment, especially as they relate to the expanding War on Terrorism and Homeland Security requirements.
