  • From Backdoors and Back Lanes to Backchannels: Reappraising British Talks
    Dr Tony Craig March 2011 [email protected] From backdoors and back lanes to backchannels: Reappraising British talks with the Provisional IRA, 1970-1974. Abstract Following the outbreak of the Troubles in Northern Ireland, the British Government established an office dedicated to gathering the views of political groups there, below the level of the state. By the end of 1971, the Office of the UK Representative (UKREP) was actively seeking contacts that would allow them to communicate with the Provisional IRA. By looking at the numerous other contacts, conduits and intermediaries that existed (however temporarily) before the 1975 ceasefire, this article illustrates an almost continuous conversation between the Office of the UK Representative (UKREP) and the IRA. It also demonstrates that these contacts were centred around Dáithí Ó Conaill (then Sinn Fein Vice President), and that these contacts, when taken as a whole, can better explain the events which culminated in the 1975 ceasefire. Keywords: Northern Ireland, Peace talks, Intelligence, Negotiation, Terrorism, Diplomacy Introduction ‘The Talks at Feakle came out of the blue for us in the British government. Ever since 1969 when the army took over security in Northern Ireland, there had been ad hoc street contacts between the army and paramilitaries on both sides of the divide, and from the time I had taken office in March 1974 I was being advised that, according to community workers, businessmen and journalists, the Provisional IRA were in a mood to move from violence. Nevertheless, I was always sceptical and remained so when in November I was told of some sort of approach being made by the Provisional IRA.’1 1 Dr Tony Craig March 2011 [email protected] The above extract from Secretary of State Merlyn Rees’s memoir of his time in Northern Ireland is both strangely evasive and contradictory.

  • Adventures in Criminology.Pdf
    ADVENTURES IN CRIMINOLOGY Sir Leon Radzinowicz is one of the leading figures in the development of criminology in the twentieth century, working as an academic criminologist, an adviser to governments and as the founding Director of the Institute of Criminology at the University of Cambridge. This account intertwines Sir Leon’s personal narrative as a criminologist with the development of criminology itself. Drawing on his long career spanning seventy years, from the 1920s to the present day, he writes about fundamental changes which have affected our understanding of crime and criminals, of criminal justice and penal systems, and of the tensions and dilemmas these pose for democratic societies. He offers a unique perspective on the intellectual and institutional history of criminology within a wide comparative perspective. CONTENTS List of plates x Foreword by The Rt. Hon.

  • Accountable Intelligence—The British Experience by K.G. Robertson
    Conflict Quarterly Accountable Intelligence—The British Experience by K.G. Robertson This review of the British approach to accountable intelligence argues that the main weakness of the approach is the absence of adequate bureaucratic and political controls. Critics of the traditional British ap­ proach would be most unwise to focus attention on the problem of exter­ nal control, public accountability, to the neglect of the more mundane, but potentially more effective, requirement for better management of in­ telligence. Successive British governments have reacted to "scandals," failures and breaches of security by a series of patchy and inadequate at­ tempts to create a proper structure for ensuring that intelligence fulfills the needs of a modern state. This is particularly true in the domestic sphere where existing arrangements do not even conform to traditional criteria of adequacy such as ministerial responsibility. Such inadequacy has led to a form of accountability by "leaks" which is detrimental to the efficiency and morale of the intelligence services. Britain has not experienced the "irresistible" demand for greater ac­ countability of intelligence which the United States experienced in the 1970s. The reason for this can be found in two areas. One is the tradi­ tional British attitude towards public discussion of intelligence which is best exemplified by the view that the only realistic choice facing an in­ telligence service is between total secrecy, the suit of armor, and the fig- leaf, anything short of total secrecy. The second is the nature of the scan­ dals associated with British intelligence. The first of these will be demonstrated by many examples in the body of the text.

Its central argument is that despite the widespread backlash against the use of the ‘five techniques’ in Northern Ireland, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) in Britain continued to support their use because of their benefits to intelligence- gathering. By examining the written histories of the ‘five techniques’ commissioned by the MoD and the course of MoD-led debates on the purposes of the techniques, we can gain an insight into official attitudes towards past and future uses of the techniques.
