  • Trends and Challenges in Intelligence Education and Training
    International Conference KNOWLEDGE-BASED ORGANIZATION Vol. XXII No 1 2016 TRENDS AND CHALLENGES IN INTELLIGENCE EDUCATION AND TRAINING Iulian MARTIN, Antonio DAN-ŞUTEU National Defense University „Carol I”, Bucharest, Romania [email protected] Abstract: The education and lifelong learning of the intelligence analysts will provide the right ingredients to evolve into incredible and increasingly operational environment characterized by uncertainty and complex challenges. Based on diagnosis of the current ways of education and training in the field of intelligence analysis, there seems to be only a few higher education programs that focuses exclusively on law enforcement intelligence community. Most education and training programs are based on intelligence courses that incorporate multidisciplinary topics and a broad theoretical approach to intelligence issues. An efficient program should not only educate students by enabling them to learn how to perform an intellectual process for having analytical products, but it should also train them by teaching them the structures, techniques, and procedures associated with the intelligence process.

  • The Article Argues That Intelligence Can Learn a Considerable Amount from Social Science Research Inspired by Constructivist and Critical Approaches
    Unlikely Connections: What Can Intelligence Research Learn by Being Critical? The article argues that intelligence can learn a considerable amount from social science research inspired by constructivist and critical approaches. Rather than being polar opposites, intelligence analysis and critical theory can identify significant areas of dialogue. The article begins by analyzing the relationship between research and of intelligence. It discusses the differences between the two and shows that research is a different kind of process than intelligence production, with which it shares some characteristics, but from which it differs considerably. Further, the article argues that research can support intelligence organizations through capacity building, improving the skills of practitioners and offering support to strategic decision-making. Then, it presents three possible understandings of this relationship and argues in favor of the use of critical approaches for improving the performance of intelligence agencies in two ways: understanding the other and understanding oneself. 1. Introduction – comparing intelligence and research The article explores the conceptual and practical interrelationships between intelligence and research. It argues that intelligence analysis can significantly learn from critical research and that the latter can provide resources for improving the former. In order to clear the path for a discussion of the relationship between critical research and intelligence, the paper first claims that research (in general) and intelligence need to be analytically separated, and that all research can offer significant support to intelligence. The article first defines the concepts of research and intelligence and elaborates their main differences. While both processes involve the examination of sources, the testing of previous knowledge and the identification of patterns and culminate in the production of new knowledge, the article argues that they produce a different kind of knowledge.

The Role of Military Intelligence in Homeland Security Stephen Dycus* I. INTRODUCTION If, God forbid, the American homeland is struck by another major terrorist attack, military forces will very likely be involved in the response. There can be little doubt, for example, that if pneumonic plague bacilli are released in Chicago and infections result,' the entire city will have to be quarantined as soon as the contagion is detected. Nor is there any doubt that troops will be used to enforce the quarantine. Only the Pentagon and National Guard units have the personnel, equipment, and training to do the job. Military forces also may be able to help prevent another attack or at least reduce its impact. On September 11, 2001, for instance, Air Force and Air National Guard jets were sent aloft in an unsuccessful effort to intercept and perhaps shoot down the civilian airliners that had been commandeered by terrorists.2 Whether in the response to a terrorist attack or in its interdiction, military intelligence services will directly support the military's use of force at home, just as they provide information and analysis for other military activities around the world.
