Download or read book The Norwegian Decision making Process and Ways to Improve it written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Norway, there has been an absence of discussion concerning the distribution of responsibilities and relations between the policy makers and their intelligence supporters. The public and political focus has been primarily on the intelligence community's execution of their missions and on ensuring that there is an established legal authority with political oversight and control. This thesis discusses Norway's foreign and security policies and their relation to the Norwegian political system. It also considers how the national policy makers could better utilize the more than one billion NKR spent yearly on the intelligence services. The thesis concludes that there is adequate political control over the two main intelligence services, the Norwegian Intelligence Service and the Norwegian Police Security Service. However, the thesis recommends changes that would improve the intelligence supporters' ability to serve their principals, the political decision makers in the government, more effectively. The thesis argues for the establishment of a joint intelligence support element at the Office of the Prime Minister and the production of a Joint Requirement and Priority Document that would cover the nation's overall intelligence needs and priorities. If established, the Document should be issued in both a classified and an unclassified version, to achieve broader political and public support. Finally, the thesis examines the overall structure of the intelligence services and recommends that the Intelligence Service be directly subordinated to the Minister of Defense, not the Chief of Defense, as it is today. This change would increase the Intelligence Service's closeness to and support of the executive power and raise it to the same governmental level as the Norwegian Police and Security Service.

Download or read book Secret Alliances written by Tony Insall and published by Biteback Publishing. This book was released on 2021-04-08 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Europe, 1940. Nazi forces sweep across the continent, with A British invasion likely only weeks away. Never before has a resistance movement been so crucial to the war effort. In this definitive appraisal of Anglo-Norwegian cooperation in the Second World War, Tony Insall reveals how some of the most striking successes of the Norwegian resistance were the reports produced by the heroic SIS agents living in the country's desolate wilderness. Their coast-watching intelligence highlighted the movements of the German fleet and led to counter-strikes which sank many enemy ships – most notably the Tirpitz in November 1944. Using previously unpublished archival material from London, Oslo and Moscow, Insall explores how SIS and SOE worked effectively with their Norwegian counterparts to produce some of the most remarkable achievements of the Second World War.
Download or read book Democratic Control of Intelligence Services written by Marina Caparini and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The events of September 11, 2001 sharply revived governmental and societal anxieties in many democratic countries concerning the threats posed by terrorism, organized crime, the proliferation and use of weapons of mass destruction, and other complex security threats. In many countries, public discourse of subjects traditionally considered part of social policy, such as immigration and asylum, have been securitized, while intelligence services have been granted greater resources and expanded powers. This comprehensive volume discusses the various challenges of establishing and maintaining accountable and democratically controlled intelligence services, drawing both from states with well-established democratic systems and those emerging from authoritarian systems and in transition towards democracy. It adopts a multidisciplinary and comparative approach, identifying good practices to make security services accountable to society and its democratic representatives. The volume will engage both academics and practitioners in the discussion of how to anchor these vital yet inherently difficult to control institutions within a firmly democratic framework. As such, it has clear relevance for these concerned with the control and oversight of intelligence and security issues in many countries.
Download or read book Intelligence Oversight in the Twenty First Century written by Ian Leigh and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-08-15 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how key developments in international relations in recent years have affected intelligence agencies and their oversight. Since the turn of the millennium, intelligence agencies have been operating in a tense and rapidly changing security environment. This book addresses the impact of three factors on intelligence oversight: the growth of more complex terror threats, such as those caused by the rise of Islamic State; the colder East-West climate following Russia’s intervention in Ukraine and annexation of Crimea; and new challenges relating to the large-scale intelligence collection and intrusive surveillance practices revealed by Edward Snowden. This volume evaluates the impact these factors have had on security and intelligence services in a range of countries, together with the challenges that they present for intelligence oversight bodies to adapt in response. With chapters surveying developments in Norway, Romania, the UK, Belgium, France, the USA, Canada and Germany, the coverage is varied, wide and up-to-date. This book will be of much interest to students of intelligence studies, security studies and International Relations.

Download or read book Intelligence Analysis in the Digital Age written by Stig Stenslie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-08-05 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines intelligence analysis in the digital age and demonstrates how intelligence has entered a new era. While intelligence is an ancient activity, the digital age is a relatively new phenomenon. This volume uses the concept of the "digital age" to highlight the increased change, complexity, and pace of information that is now circulated, as new technology has reduced the time it takes to spread news to almost nothing. These factors mean that decision-makers face an increasingly challenging threat environment, which in turn increases the demand for timely, relevant, and reliable intelligence to support policymaking. In this context, the book demonstrates that intelligence places greater demands on analysis work, as the traditional intelligence cycle is no longer adequate as a process description. In the digital age, it is not enough to accumulate as much information as possible to gain a better understanding of the world. To meet customers’ needs, the intelligence process must be centred around the analysis work – which in turn has increased the demand for analysts. Assessments, not least predictions, are now just as important as revealing someone else’s secrets. This volume will be of much interest to students of intelligence studies, security studies, and international relations.
