Front Cover Description
Jan Goldman is professor of Intelligence and National Security
Studies at Tiffin University. He has been an analyst and educator
in the intelligence and academic communities for over 30 years. He
serves on the editorial board of the open-access journal Security
and Society, http://scholarworks.sjsu.edu/secrecyandsociety/
Susan Maret teaches a course in government secrecy at the School of
Information, San Jose State University. She is the editor of the
open-access journal Security and Society,
http://scholarworks.sjsu.edu/secrecyandsociety/
Words are tools and this book is an essential toolbox for anyone
wanting to understand, and influence, public policy on
intelligence, secrecy and privacy. Based on years of research,
Goldman and Maret have collaborated here to produce the definitive
analysis of the official meanings of key concepts from the National
Security world. Activists, scholars, and concerned citizens can all
benefit from the careful work these two scholars have done to
illuminate a part of government operations that is quite
consciously kept in the shadows. Casting light on the hidden
assumptions and unchallenged framings of the secret world of the
Deep State, this book is an invaluable contribution to the struggle
to sustain and expand our fragile democracy.
