Edited by our AJI Research Fellow, Dr. Matthew Hefler, Intelligence and Contemporary Conflict is designed for impact - a collection filled with insight from some of the world’s leading specialists of intelligence history, including Dr. Gill Bennett, former Chief Historian of the UK’s Foreign and Commonwealth Office, Professor Michael Goodman, Official Historian of the UK’s Joint Intelligence Committee, Professor John Ferris, the Authorized Historian of the UK’s Government Communications Headquarters, and Dr. Calder Walton, Assistant Director of the Belfer Center’s Intelligence Project at the Harvard Kennedy School. With a focus on intelligence and communication in the most pressing issues of international security, the book will be useful for scholars, practitioners and enthusiasts alike. 

The collection was published with the support of the Ax:son Johnson Institute for Statecraft and Diplomacy and the Axel and Margaret Ax:son Johnson Foundation for Public Benefit and beautifully produced by Bokförlaget Stolpe.
