Allen Dulles an original artwork based on the image of Dulles from the CIA's site Celebrating 60 Years at [1] Source

According to the website promoting the magazine, Intelligence and National Security (ISSN 0268-4527) is the world's leading academic journal on the role of intelligence in international relations."[1]

The website also notes:

Articles on the historical development of professional intelligence agencies provide new perspectives on the evolution of intelligence as a factor in state power in both the domestic and international contexts. Contemporary issues are also addressed using conceptual tools developed in the fields of sociology, law, anthropology, philosophy, political science and international relations. These perspectives are complemented by contributions from a range of former practitioners, drawn from various national backgrounds, providing yet another perspective on the nature and impact of intelligence on national and international security and the course of world politics. Topics addressed include the history of intelligence, representations of intelligence in popular culture, public understandings and expectations of intelligence services, intelligence and ethics, the privatisation of intelligence practices and the role of non-government agencies, the challenges of analysis and warning, the political and cultural dynamics of intelligence practices, the issue of liaison and internal cooperation and the role of intelligence services as instruments of state control in both historical and contemporary contexts. All articles are subjected to a rigorous peer-review process with an acceptance rate of one in three.

The journal was founded in 1986 and is published by Routledge Publishers.
