Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract In 1992, barely a year after the collapse of the USSR, three Russian lawyers were granted unprecedented access to the holy of holies -- the minutes of the Politburo, the Soviet Communist Party's highest body. President Boris Yeltsin was anxious to secure his political triumph by seeking to outlaw the Communist Party, and his lawyers were entrusted with using the historical records to prepare his case before the newly formed Constitutional Court.

Cold War Cooperation: the KGB and Poland’s Security Service in Operation Kaskada and Operation Kama / Gregorczyk, Dariusz J   Journal Article
Gregorczyk, Dariusz J Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The increasing tension in international politics during the Cold War increased the importance of intelligence services throughout the world. Security services on both sides of the Iron Curtain were an important tool for gathering information on the enemy and for destroying political opponents. Moscow and its allies readily used their secret services for their purposes, both international and domestic. During the Cold War, the State Committee for Security (KGB) tightened its links to intelligence and counterintelligence services of the Soviet Bloc (SB) countries. One example of such cooperation is the joint operation of the KGB and the SB—Security Service of the Polish People’s Republic—in the 1970s and 1980s, called Operation Kaskada, and its subset, Operation Kama. The KGB and SB actions focused on compromising expat activists of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists and on finding their allies in the USSR and Poland. The strategies used by both intelligence services led to closing a courier route from the West into the USSR and to seizing a contingent of documents that Moscow then used expertly for its propaganda and political ends. Given its efficacy, the operative model used by the Soviet intelligence agents is in all probability still used by Russian intelligence and counterintelligence services.

Death to traitors? the pursuit of intelligence defectors from the Soviet Union to the Putin era / Hanni, Adrian; Grossmann, Miguel   Journal Article
Hanni, Adrian Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This article argues that Russia’s use of lethal violence against intelligence defectors has to be understood as a public spectacle in which Russian leaders and intelligence officials never intended to hide their role. This “theatrical murder” functions primarily as a political signaling tool for a reasserting Russia to communicate to distinct domestic and foreign audiences. We historicize the phenomenon by outlining and explaining the KGB’s approach towards defectors during the Cold War and show that “theatrical murder” is a unique feature of Russia under Putin’s rule. The empirical findings are used to significantly advance theorizing on signaling through covert action.

In pursuit of the squared circle: the Nosenko theories revisited / Alan Messer, W   Journal Article
Alan Messer, W Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract The controversial case of KGB defector Yuriy Nosenko has centered on the contention that he was a double agent for the KGB. Heretofore, compelling evidence suggesting that he was bad has contended with the compelling argument that he must be good because the KGB would not be so foolish as to orchestrate a double agent case in this manner. A third theory seeks to square the circle with a conclusion that is roughly compatible with both arguments. In the process, the argument demonstrates how truly professional operational counterintelligence ought to be conducted.

KGB and its enduring legacy / Bateman, Aaron   Journal Article
Bateman, Aaron Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The creation of the Federal’naia Sluzhba Bezopasnosti in 1995 represented the eighth time that the Russian secret police underwent an organizational transformation since the contemporary service was created in the form of the Cheka in 1917. The post-Soviet Russian security services have been shaped by the early Soviet secret police’s identity as a domestic security service protecting the Bolshevik Party. After the USSR collapsed, the KGB did not die; its power increased to a level not seen since the Andropov era. The FSB is the most direct successor to the KGB’s domestic apparatus and functions as both an intelligence agency and the extrajudicial political police of the Russian Government. The FSB has become the dominant security institution in Russia, which is emblematic of the Russian state’s continuing and historical obsession with domestic security and the use of extrajudicial force to maintain political stability.
