| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Espionage has been around a long time, to be sure, back to biblical and ancient times. But when specifically, was American espionage last discussed? The intent of the National Security Act of 1947 was to establish an agency for espionage and analysis. From 1947 to 1989, while United States espionage was global in scope, in the sense that it reported on a multitude of topics, the majority mostly forgotten or ignored in subsequent discussions, espionage heavily reflected the Cold War emphasis on the Soviet Union. The Cold War gave American intelligence cover to engage in espionage. American espionage has a future but it will have to fit into the future of the United States. The time has arrived to think about that future and how espionage must fit into it. |
