WHY SPY? Intelligence and Security Editorial Board RIcHaRd J. aldRIcH (WaRWIck UnIveRSItY); RobeRt doveR (loUgHboRoUgH UnIveRSItY); SIR laWRence FReedman (kIng’S college london); mIcHael S. goodman (kIng’S college london) Secret intelligence is no longer the hidden dimension of statecraft. Yet in reality, we have only just started to lift the corner of this secret world. This series begins with the premise that impact of secret intelligence on the international system—especially since the end of the cold War—remains a mystery that awaits exploration. consequently, it provides a forum for both scholars and reflective practitioners to offer new insights into the secret world from historical, sociological, political science and international relations perspectives.
