Description

This comprehensive volume from Routledge examines the 1975 Senate Select Committee (Church Committee) investigation into US intelligence abuses during the Cold War and applies its lessons to contemporary counterterrorism policy. The Church Committee report stands as America's most thorough public record of intelligence service operations, with many modern legal safeguards on US intelligence agencies directly stemming from its proposed reforms, including the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. The work underscores the critical importance of constitutional government and Congressional oversight in balancing national security with civil liberties. Essential reading for understanding how historical intelligence abuses shaped current regulatory frameworks and for grasping the ongoing tension between security needs and democratic accountability in the war on terror era.

Key Features

Provides the most thorough public record available on America's intelligence services and operational history.
