Book Description
Intelligence is now acknowledged as the hidden dimension to international diplomacy and national security. It is the hidden piece of the jigsaw puzzle of global relations that cements relationships, undermines alliances and topples tyrants, and after many decades of being deliberately overlooked or avoided, it is now regarded as a subject of legitimate study by academics and historians. This second edition of Historical Dictionary of International Intelligence covers its history through a chronology, an introductory essay, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 500 cross-referenced entries on espionage techniques, categories of agents, crucial operations spies, defectors, moles, double and triple agents, and the tradecraft they apply. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the international intelligence.

The wave of recent arrests of terrorist suspects around the United States has led many across the globe to wonder whether terrorist activity really has decreased in the eight years since 9/11. Terrorist networks are still prominent around the world, and some believe that they are more powerful than ever. With so many plots foiled and so many more still looming, international security has become one of the most important issues not just for the Obama administration but for governments around the world. With the Campus Dictionary of International Security—the first volume in a new series of specialized dictionaries from KWS—international security experts Paul Cornish, Andrew Dorman, and Caroline Soper assemble a group of notable contributors to provide an overview of the key concepts of and the ongoing debates surrounding international security.
