Forthcoming Book of the Week:

STALIN'S ENGLISHMAN: Guy Burgess, the Cold War, and the Cambridge Spy Ring
(St. Martin's Press; October 4, 2016; $29.99 hardcover)

...the title of Andrew Lownie's close examination of an enigmatic member of the Cambridge Spy Ring. Guy Burgess was an engaging and charming companion to some; an unappealing, repellent, or utterly ruthless manipulator to others. A man of enormous contradictions and complexities. Lownie unravels these through primary documents and over 100 fresh interviews with people who knew Burgess personally, and most of whom have never spoken publicly until now.
STALIN'S ENGLISHMAN provides a different picture, arguing that Burgess was the most important member of the Cambridge Spy Ring. Some revelatory insights include: • The existence of an additional spy working at the Washington Embassy, Wilfrid Mann, who was later given American citizenship in exchange for spying against the Russians. • Burgess's career in British intelligence began earlier than has been realized and he continued to play an important role for the Russians even after he defected to Russia including advising the Russian Foreign Ministry and taking part in a honey trap. • Guy Burgess was engaged to Winston Churchill's niece and the wife of the Prime Minister Anthony Eden as well as to Esther Whitfield, the secretary and mistress of Kim Philby. In the 1930s, Burgess, along with notable members Donald MacLean, Kim Philby and Anthony Blunt, was recruited by the Soviet Union to betray their country, the United Kingdom. Burgess rose through academia, the BBC, the Foreign Office, MI5 and MI6, and in doing so, he gained access to thousands of highly sensitive and secret documents which he passed to his Russian handlers.
Lownie describes that despite Burgess's chaotic personal life of drunken philandering and promiscuous homosexuality, it did nothing to stop his penetration and betrayal of the British Intelligence Service. Even when he was under suspicion, the fabled charm which had brought him many close personal relationships with influential Establishment figures (including Winston Churchill) also served to Teflonize him...preventing his exposure as a spy for many years. Why did he seek to betray the British Establishment by becoming a Soviet agent? How was he recruited and run? Why was he not discovered until after his flight in 1951? What information did he provide? How far did he change the course of the twentieth century history? Are there still further spies to be revealed? Lownie answers these and more.
About ANDREW LOWNIE: He was born in Kenya, brought up in Bermuda and educated in Asheville, NC before attending the universities of Cambridge and Edinburgh. He first became interested in the Cambridge Spy Ring when, as President of the Cambridge Union Society in 1984, he arranged an international seminar on the subject. After graduating from Cambridge University, where he won the Dunster Prize for History, Lownie went on to take a postgraduate degree in history at Edinburgh University. A former journalist for The London Times and the British representative for the Washington-based National Intelligence Centre, he helped set up the Spy Museum in Washington. He is now a successful literary agent, and has written or edited seven books, including a biography of John Buchan

"A crack biography of a man who was a preposterous enigma." – Kirkus Reviews
"Awful human beings make for splendid biographies." - Times Best Biographies of the Year 2015 (UK)
"[A] fine biography about an effective spy and a disgraceful traitor who lived to enjoy Communist reality firsthand. It fills a major historical gap in espionage history." - CIA's Studies In Intelligence
"A remarkable and definitive portrait of the truly ghastly spy and traitor Guy Burgess who should surely never have been permitted to do us so much damage. And a portrait of the snobbery and laxity that permitted an Old Etonian who had changed sides to get away with it for so long." —Frederick Forsyth, former journalist and spy.

Section I - INTELLIGENCE HIGHLIGHTS

$12M Federal Contract to MU to Found Education Program for National Intelligence Agency.  Sailors, pilots, military service men and women deployed around the world, and government officials who make national security decisions all rely on the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) to provide them with timely geospatial information that is critical for planning and decision-making. The University of Missouri College of Engineering has just been awarded a five-year, $12 million contract to deliver a comprehensive data science education program that will provide cutting-edge analytical training for the NGA workforce and potentially other members of the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC). This new program will address key education and training needs identified by NGA.

The program is a collaboration between the MU College of Engineering's Center for Geospatial Intelligence (CGI) and the MU Informatics Institute's Data Science and Analytics (DSA) master's degree program. The newly established effort is part of the NGA College's Learning Outreach program that partners with qualified academic institutions and industry partners to address key education and training gaps within the NGA. Mizzou will provide a comprehensive data science education program that includes databases and programming, statistical analyses and predictive modeling, data visualization and data mining, cloud-based computing, and machine learning among other specialties that will help develop the NGA and IC workforce.

"Our faculty are thrilled to be able to support NGA's effort to equip its workforce with the data science skills necessary for NGA to make sense out of the overwhelming volume of government, commercial, and open-source geospatial information they have to deal with on a day-to-day basis," said Curt Davis, director of the CGI and professor of electrical and computer engineering. "The information that NGA provides to policymakers and members of the U.S. armed services on a daily basis is vital to our national security. Faculty from MU's Center for Geospatial Intelligence have worked on a wide variety of NGA and IC-funded projects over the last 10 years, so we have a great appreciation and deep respect for the NGA mission."  [Read more:  Eurekalert/1September2016]

Jakarta - Controversial Police General Tapped to Become Spy Chief.  It appears that President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo could no longer avoid the pressure of having to make a quick decision regarding the career of controversial police general Com. Gen. Budi Gunawan.

It took Jokowi one year before he decided to name Budi the deputy national police chief after he declined to inaugurate him in the chief's position in February 2015 over allegations that he was involved in a graft case.

Facing pressure for Budi to take over as National Police chief when Gen. Badrodin Haiti retired in July, Jokowi again resisted and instead appointed Budi's junior, Gen. Tito Karnavian.

When Jokowi decided to undertake another Cabinet reshuffle in July, speculation was rife that Budi would be given a ministerial position, but the prediction did not come to pass.  [Read more: JakartaPost/3September2016]

Kyrgyzstan's Intelligence Agency Initiates Investigation into Attack on Chinese Embassy.  The State Committee for National Security of Kyrgyzstan, an intelligence agency, has initiated a criminal investigation into the attack targeting the Chinese Embassy in Kyrgyzstan capital Bishkek, the press service of the agency said on Tuesday.

The attack on the Chinese embassy in Kyrgyzstan on Tuesday morning involved a suicide car bomber, who was killed instantly.

According to preliminary data, three Kyrgyz employees of the embassy were wounded in the terrorist attack and their injuries were not serious.

China's Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying also confirmed at a press conference that three people of the Chinese embassy were injured in the attack.  [Read more:  Xinhua/31August2016]

Military Intelligence Troops Learn to Work Together in New Multifunctional Platoon.  The 82nd Airborne Division's 1st Brigade Combat Team, serving as the core of the nation's Global Response Force, is looking to change the way it collects intelligence on the battlefield.

For the last six months, soldiers in D Company, 127th Brigade Engineer Battalion have been honing their skills as part of the brigade's first multifunctional military intelligence platoon.

That platoon is merging two of the 82nd Airborne's intelligence efforts that previously have been split into two separate domains.

The first, signal intelligence, is focused on using advanced technology, some of which is classified, to track enemy whereabouts and unveil future plans. The other, human intelligence, relies on people with direct knowledge of the enemy. It depends on relationships between soldiers and trusted contacts who may conduct covert meetings.  [Read more:  Brooks/FayObserver/4September2016]

​Finland's Intelligence: Don't Take Your Phone Overseas.  Finland's Security Intelligence Service, Supo, has advised citizens not to take any electronic devices with them when travelling abroad due to the risk of compromise.

The Nordic nation's intelligence agency has warned citizens against taking phones, laptops and tablets when travelling to any other foreign country, Finland's national broadcaster YLE reported.

Supo also said if devices must be taken abroad that under no circumstances should they be left in a hotel room. It also advised against trusting the security of hotel room safes.

The risks associated with carrying electronic devices abroad are well known to public and private sector employees, be they mathematicians, scientists, business execs or any person whose devices may contain sensitive, regulated or valuable information.   [Read more:  Tung/CSO/2September2016]

Iran Eyes Intelligence Cooperation with Japan against Terrorism.  Chairman of the Iranian Parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission called for stronger cooperation with Japan in various fields, including intelligence, as part of international efforts in the fight against terrorism.

One of the areas for cooperation between Tehran and Tokyo could be intelligence efforts in battling terrorism, given the need for concerted, international action against the threat of terrorism, which knows no boundaries, Alaeddin Boroujerdi said in a meeting with Japan's State Minister for Foreign Affairs Kentaro Sonoura, held in Tehran on Saturday.

The senior Iranian lawmaker also lashed out at the US and its regional partners for funding and arming terrorist groups in the region, slamming that policy as a grave mistake.

The Japanese diplomat, for his part, said he has travelled to Tehran in pursuit of practical cooperation between the two countries.  [Read more:  TasminNewsAgency/4September2016]


Section II - CONTEXT & PRECEDENCE

Future Agents in Training:  High School Students Get Inside Look at FBI Careers.  It was just before noon when explosives detonated inside four cars on a grassy field near the FBI Training Academy in Quantico, Virginia. Shortly after the blasts, a group of high school students loaded up equipment and made their way downrange to investigate.

It was a textbook post-blast crime scene for the Bureau's Evidence Response Teams, only this scenario was part of a weeklong course for teenagers interested in career opportunities with the FBI.

Since 2008, the FBI's Washington Field Office (WFO) has hosted the annual Future Agents in Training (FAIT) program, which provides a hands-on approach to educating area high school juniors and seniors on the Bureau's operations. With a focus on becoming a special agent, the program presents a cross section of the FBI, including its criminal, counterterrorism, intelligence, and administrative divisions.

"The high school students who attend the FAIT program are among the best and the brightest from our region," said WFO Assistant Director in Charge Paul Abbate. "While youth today are exposed to stories about law enforcement in the news and on dramatic television shows, the program provides a realistic, behind-the-scenes look into life in the FBI."  [Read more:  FBI/6September2016]

How Israel Ignored Its Most Valuable Spy.  He was the best spy ever recruited by the Mossad. Too bad the Israelis didn't listen to him. Even worse, the quarrel over why the spy was ignored inside Israel led to his death. But the Israelis were not his only clients; this asset also sold his services to Saudi Arabia.

Ashraf Marwan was the son-in-law of Egypt's President Gamal Abdel Nasser. He became a crucial adviser to Nasser's successor Anwar el-Sadat. In 1970 he called the Israeli embassy in London and offered to work for the Israeli intelligence service. The Mossad ran him as its best asset ever, with then head of the service Zvi Zamir often meeting him face-to-face to debrief him.

A new book by veteran Israeli intelligence expert Uri Bar-Joseph tells the story of the Angel, Marwan's code name, in detail. This is a tale of espionage at the highest level. The Angel provided Israel with Egypt's entire order of battle for its armed forces and Egypt's war plans for attacking Israel across the Suez Canal. He provided details of Sadat's meetings with the Soviet leaders and up-to-the-minute reports on Soviet arms deliveries to Cairo.

But the Israeli military intelligence experts in the Directorate of Military Intelligence, which was solely responsible for producing the national intelligence estimates on whether Egypt would go to war, were convinced Sadat would not take the risk. The DMI had a concept of war planning. In the concept, Egypt could not beat Israel because of Israel's overwhelming air superiority, which Egypt's leaders knew made war suicidal. Thus Sadat wouldn't attack.  [Read more:  Riedel/NationalInterest/5September2016]

Dining with a Double Agent: Your Next Dinner Companion Could Be a Spy.  Naveed Jamali spent four years of his life looking over his shoulder, noting every parked van and imitating Daniel Craig's best Bond smirk.

He recited lines from thrillers such as "Spy Game," arranged meetings with Russian intelligence officers, and even drove around in a black corvette.

Jamali was a real-life spy - a double agent, to be exact - and he's sharing his story over dinner at the Spy Museum's Dinner with a Spy event Oct. 5.

Jamali got into espionage at a young age. His immigrant parents owned a small store in New York that specialized in acquiring books and scholarly articles for businesses and government agencies.  [Read more:  Nania/WTOP/6September2016]

Watch CIA Director John Brennan Throw Out the First Pitch Before It Becomes Classified Information.  John O. Brennan, director of the Central Intelligence Agency, threw out the first pitch before Monday's Labor Day matchup between the Blue Jays and the Yankees.

Take a look, because it's a seriously good pitch - as if Brennan played some ball before heading into the world of international intrigue and espionage, Moe Berg-style.

Also, it's only a matter of time before it becomes classified information:  [Read more:  MLB/5September2016]

CIA Spook Recalls Thailand's Role in Secret War.  A CIA spy who helped orchestrate America's "secret war" in Laos said US President Barack Obama's visit should not dwell on the past as he defended the soldiers he fought beside, including the Thais.

Mr. Obama will be in the country from Tuesday to Thursday, the first US president to visit Laos since 1975 when America lost its war in the landlocked nation - along with a similar defeat in Vietnam.

"Obama's diplomatic visit to Vientiane certainly isn't the time nor the place to find value or fault in anything the USA did in Laos," retired CIA officer James "Mule" Parker said. [Parker is the current president of AFIO's Las Vegas chapter].

Now aged 73, he was a CIA paramilitary case officer in Laos from 1971-73 and authored several books about his experiences in Southeast Asia including Codename Mule, Battle for Skyline Ridge, Last Man Out:  A Personal Account of the Vietnam War and his latest, The Vietnam War Its Ownself. All are available at Amazon.com or at the author's own website, muleorations.com. [Read more:  Ehrlich/BangkokPost/4September2016]


Section III - COMMENTARY

A New Trinity May Be the Future of Intelligence.  The emergence of cyber as a battlespace domain has changed the formula for intelligence gathering as well as warfighting. No longer can any form of the traditional intelligence architecture guarantee national security superiority. Just as weapon systems needed to accommodate new technologies, the intelligence community now must leverage the trinity of sensors, big data and cyber.

Global networks supporting commerce and government have shifted quickly to agile, mobile, network-based technologies and applications as cyber has transitioned from cable-bound actors to radio frequency (RF) free-rangers. Unfortunately, current and planned intelligence acquisitions will not deliver the capabilities the United States needs fast enough to tackle rapidly emerging cyberthreats. A new intelligence strategy is required to achieve global information dominance. This strategy must converge multiple dimensions of the Internet to detect global changes for indications and warning and to exploit, correlate, track and target threats in real time in both cyberspace and the battlespace. Only this will enable the United States to maintain its superpower edge and reverse adversaries' asymmetric advantages in cyberspace.

The industrial base's knowledge can help develop and create a new technology-converged intelligence enterprise in the next decade that will re-establish U.S. information and intelligence superiority. The country must act immediately and in earnest to advance the national intelligence mission or risk losing the diminishing margin of dominance it now has to prosecute national interests.

A national effort will be needed to tap these advances in intelligence. The ability of emerging forms of intelligence to perceive the environment appears to be neither constrained by time nor circumscribed by distance. Every lightwave, every thermal and sound wave, every frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum, the most delicate of vibrations and even the movement of photons and particles at the quantum level do not escape its notice. It can digitize matter, store data and perfectly recall every piece of information it gathers. It can make decisions at a rate approaching the speed of light.  [Read more:  DelVecchio&Moore/Signal/1September2016]

Presidential Elections: A Perilous Time for U.S. Intelligence.  Lawfare is pleased to announce the publication of a new working paper in the Lawfare Research Paper Series: Presidential Elections: A Perilous Time for U.S. Intelligence, by Eric Manpearl.

From the abstract:  Intelligence issues have intersected with presidential politics several times in U.S. history. Each instance was unique, and the effects have been mixed. Candidates have sometimes made claims based on intelligence to enhance their standing, or to attack their rivals. In other cases, unforeseen events forced candidates to express and defend a position on U.S. intelligence. There are also remarkable examples where politicians voluntarily surrendered a potential electoral advantage to preserve an important defense secret. Whether an intelligence topic is inserted into a presidential campaign on purpose or as a result of external events, there are considerable risks to both the intelligence and the political processes.  [Read more:  Jurecic/Lawfare/2September2016]

The Country That's Holding its Own Against Islamic State.  Islamic State remains strong. It may have lost ground in the Middle East this year, but it has upped its game beyond the territories it controls in Iraq and Syria, inspiring or conducting a terrorist attack every 84 hours since June.

It successfully hit two of the three top targets on its list: France and the United States. To date, however, it failed to perpetrate a successful attack on its third target: Iran.

It's not for lack of trying. Iran actively fights Islamic State - and Tehran's counterterrorism efforts have succeeded where others have not.

Iran's goal is twofold: Undermine Islamic State's spread, ideology and vision, which promotes a sectarian agenda, while working to prevent attacks on Iranian soil. Iran's efforts in neighboring Iraq and Syria are slowly paying off, as the territory held by the group continues to shrink.  [Read more:  Esfandiary&Tabatabai/Reuters/6September2016]

The American Fugitives of Havana.  When a cold war winds down, what happens to its spies and traitors? The British double agents Kim Philby, Guy Burgess, and Donald Maclean were able to see out their days in Moscow while it was still ruled by Communists, without fears that their hosts might betray them and send them back to an unforgiving Great Britain.

Other scenarios, such as that of the United States and Cuba, are more complicated. On December 17, 2014, the same day that the United States and Cuba announced the restoration of diplomatic relations, an exchange of long-imprisoned spies and double agents also took place. Three Cuban sleeper agents who had been imprisoned in the U.S. since 1998 were released from U.S. federal prisons and flown home. Simultaneously, Rolando Sarraff Trujillo, a C.I.A. double agent who had been held in a Cuban prison since 1995, was flown to the U.S., as was Alan Gross, a State Department contractor who was arrested in 2009 for smuggling Internet equipment onto the island for dissident groups.

But the fates of many fugitive citizens who were given refuge in the United States or Cuba remain in limbo. Among them are people sought back home for crimes including murder, kidnapping, bank robbery, and terrorism. Curious about such people, I recently asked an American official what prevented the U.S. government from arresting, and possibly extraditing, Luis Posada Carriles, an eighty-eight-year-old Cuban exile living in Florida, on terrorism charges.

Posada, a former C.I.A. operative who spent most of the past half century involved in efforts to violently destabilize the Castro government, has been on the top of Cuba's most-wanted list for decades. I ticked off the long list of his alleged crimes - most notably, the bombing of Cubana de Aviaci'n Flight 455, in 1976, which killed all seventy-three passengers onboard, and a number of bombings and assassination attempts across the Western Hemisphere. As recently as 1997, Posada admitted to planning the bombing of a Havana hotel, which killed an Italian tourist.  [Read more:  Anderson/TheNewYorker/31August2016]

Margaret Cooper, Wren at Bletchley Park.  Margaret Cooper, who has died aged 98, played a small but significant role at Bletchley Park in the defeat of German U-boats.

She joined the WRNS in September 1941 and undertook her training at Westfield College, London which had been taken over by the Admiralty. Two weeks into her training she was resigned to becoming a cook, but late one night she and her class were called to the office of the senior WRNS officer who pointed to a letter on her desk, which she said came from Winston Churchill, asking for volunteers for work which was "very, very secret".

The officer knew no more except that the need for volunteers was urgent, and Margaret Cooper and her companions were told to sleep on the offer and decide in the morning. Eight of the 10 girls on the course volunteered and the next day they were put in a bus. They were surprised to be taken not to a seaport but into the country, and when they alighted, they found themselves at Bletchley Park, the headquarters of the Government's Code and Cypher School.

At first Margaret Cooper worked in Hut 11 on the bombes - the decoding machines which had been designed and built by Alan Turing, Gordon Welchman and Harold Keen. She remembered broken windows, no heating, round-the-clock working, and exhaustion, and by February 1942 she was seriously ill with flu. She also remembered her pride later that year when Montgomery's army brought Rommel's to a halt in the Western Desert partly because British submarines, cued from Bletchley, had sunk so many German supply ships in the Mediterranean.  [Read more:  TheTelegraph/30August2016]

Call for Papers

Call for papers by NSA's Center for Cryptologic History for their 2017 Symposium. 

Introduction
The Center for Cryptologic History invites proposals for papers to be delivered at the biennial Symposium on Cryptologic History which will take place on 19-20 October 2017. The Symposium will be held at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory's Kossiakoff Center in Laurel, Maryland.  Following the Symposium, on Saturday, 21 October, participants will be given an opportunity to tour the National Cryptologic Museum and participate in a workshop on sources for research in cryptologic history.  The theme for the 2017 Symposium will be "Milestones, Memories, and Momentum." There are many milestones to mark in 2017: the 160th anniversary of the first attempt to span the Atlantic with a telegraph cable, 100 years since both the entry of the United States into World War I and the Russian October Revolution, and 75 years after the World War II battles of Coral Sea and Midway. Our Symposium will take place just a few months before the 50th anniversary of the Tet Offensive in Vietnam, and during the 25th year after the fall of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War. Papers looking at these milestone events in cryptology and considering how  we remember their significance are particularly encouraged, as are those examining how cryptologic advances from these times provided momentum to create the systems of today and the future.  We are also eager to have proposals on cryptologic topics that diverge from the theme. Submissions from those who are new to the field, particularly graduate students, are very welcome. This will ensure the variety and diversity of exchange that has been the hallmark of this event.  There will be a World War I-specific track to mark the centennial of American participation in that war and the birth of modern signals intelligence.

Purpose
The Symposium is an occasion for historians (and others) to gather for reflection and debate on relevant and important topics from the cryptologic past. Regular participants include historians from the Center for Cryptologic History, the Intelligence Community, the defense establishment, the military services, scholars from American and foreign academic institutions, veterans of the cryptologic profession, graduate and undergraduate students, and the interested public. Past symposia have featured scholarship that set out new ways to consider our cryptologic heritage, and this one will be no exception.  The conference will provide many opportunities to interact with leading historians and other distinguished experts. We encourage an interdisciplinary approach. The mix of practitioners, scholars, and interested observers always guarantees a lively debate promoting an enhanced appreciation for past events.

Proposals
The proposals and papers must be unclassified. We encourage proposals for single presentations and full panels; the program committee may form panels from single presentations with like topics. Presenters should be prepared to speak for 15-20 minutes; proposals for a longer time slot should include a strong justification.  Your proposal package should include an abstract of no more than one page, a complete CV, a short biographical sketch (not to exceed 150 words) to be used in the program, the amount of time you require for your paper, and full contact details. Panel proposals should include the above for each presenter and a short explanation of the panel's theme.  Please submit your proposal by noon on Monday, 6 February 2017, to Program Chair Betsy Rohaly Smoot at history@nsa.gov or to her care at The Center for Cryptologic History, Suite 6886, 9800 Savage Road, Fort George G. Meade, MD 20755. Please note that correspondence that does not include the suite number may not be delivered in a timely manner.  Proposals received after noon on 6 February will be considered on a space-available basis. The program committee will notify you about the final status of your proposal by 9 June 2017, but may engage you in discussions before that date.

Costs
Registration costs for 2017 have not yet been set, but for planning purposes, the costs for 2015 were as follows: $70/day ($140 for 2 days, no cost for the museum visit); $35/day ($70 for 2 days) for full-time students with ID. The fee includes lunch and snacks. In the past, we have been able to waive the fees for non-government speakers on the day they present their paper. We hope to have final registration costs available at the time you are notified about the status of your proposal.

The jihad must be effectively and decisively countered, rolled back, dismantled and ultimately defeated through the sustained use of a comprehensive, fact-based approach involving all instruments of national power at the federal, state and local levels, and wherever possible, the help of like-minded allies.
Gaffney is founder/ and president of the Center for Security Policy (CSP) in Washington, DC. The Center is a resource for timely analyses of foreign and defense policy matters.

Halsey's unwitting American armada. It was the beginning of the epic Battle of Leyte Gulf - the greatest naval battle in history. Join acclaimed historian John Prados, author of the new book Storm Over Leyte, for an unprecedented look at both sides of this titanic naval clash. Drawing upon a wealth of untapped sources - US and Japanese military records, diaries, declassified intelligence reports, and postwar interrogation transcripts - Prados offers up a masterful narrative of naval conflict on a gigantic scale. With access to the naval intelligence reports that influenced key strategic decisions on both sides, find out why Prados believes that despite the Americans' overwhelming superiority in firepower and supplies, the Japanese found a new weapon and achieved part of their goal.

Wednesday, 21 September 2016, noon - Washington, DC - True Believer: Stalin's Last American Spy - at the International Spy Museum

Noel Field betrayed his country and crushed his family. Once a well-meaning and privileged American, Field spied for Stalin during the 1930s and '40s. Used as a pawn in Stalin's sinister master strategy, he was ultimately kidnapped and tortured by the KGB and forced to testify against his own Communist comrades. Join journalist Kati Marton, author of True Believer, as she explains how this Ivy League-educated, US State Department employee, deeply rooted in American culture and history, became a hardcore Stalinist. With a reporter's eye for detail and a historian's grasp of the cataclysmic events of the twentieth century, Marton will discuss how she uncovered Field's quest for a life of meaning that went horribly wrong through her unprecedented access to Field family correspondence, Soviet Secret Police records, and reporting on key players including Alger Hiss, CIA Director Allen Dulles, World War II spy master "Wild Bill" Donovan, and Josef Stalin himself.

28 - 29 October 2016 - The Hague, Netherlands - "Witness to Change: Intelligence Analysis in a Changing Environment" is topic of the NISA 25th Anniversary Conference

The Netherlands Intelligence Studies Association (NISA) celebrates its 25th anniversary with a two-days conference. Main theme is the strongly changed environment of the intelligence analyst during these past 25 years.
In other words: the 25th anniversary as a symbol for the revolutionary changes in the intelligence world with which analysts have to deal; both external developments (the onset of a multipolar world, asymmetric conflicts, the information revolution), and internal changes (in collecting, processing, dissemination, legitimization and supervision).
These developments forced intelligence analysts and organisations to adapt work processes and methods and techniques. Intelligence analysts still mostly operate in secret, but the demands of intelligence consumers and the public have changed over the last 25 years. Social and technological developments have changed the playing field and the rules of the game for the intelligence analyst, leading to an enormous growth in (publicly) available information and means of communication, and demands for more transparency and accountability. Aim of the conference is to touch on the consequences of this changed environment, and to look ahead.

Participants are invited to listen to distinguished experts in the field, and to enter into discussions on various topics relating to intelligence analysis.

The Conference will be held at the Nationaal Archief (the National Archive), Prins Willem Alexanderhof 20, The Hague, the Netherlands.
The conference program may be viewed here as a PDF.

Conference Fee: Standard Fee: Eur175; Student Fee: Eur80 (proof of status required). Fee covers registration, lunch and drinks.
To join the Conference Diner on Friday 28 October 2016, an extra fee of Eur30 is applicable.
