US Intelligence and Al Qaeda
(NOTE: The Book cover may vary if published by different companies.)
Author:Ā Ā Peter De Werd
Categories: English , Al QaedaĀ
Pages:
Publisher: local
Cover: Softcover
Book description :
This book sets out a new analytic analysis by contrasting narratives (ACN), which states that defining an enemy and attempting to counter threats can contribute to the manifestation of that threat. Peter de Werd applies ACN to the problem the US faced in understanding and responding to the phenomenon of Al Qaeda in the 1990s. He demonstrates how this approach can fill a gap in intelligence studies by enhancing the understanding of complex intelligence problems and strengthening the practice of intelligence analysis. Adopting a reflexivist theoretical stance, the book underlines the importance of an integrated approach to interpretation and action, and of a continuous dialogue between intelligence and policy.
