By: Material type: TextTextPublication details: 2021Subject(s): Online resources: In: International Journal of Intelligence and CounterIntelligence Vol 34, No 4, Winter 2021-2022, pp. 757-786 (117)Summary: Current and former U.S. intelligence officers in unprecedentedly large numbers politicized intelligence in their opposition to candidate and then President Donald Trump. The activists consistently refused, and still refuse, to accept responsibility for the politicization or the damage it caused to intelligence and broader national security. They declined to consider whether a well-established field of thought-civil-military relations-contains insights about normatively appropriate behavior by former senior intelligence officers, especially. This article explores lessons for intelligence officers in the civil-military literature and offers suggestions for revised behavioral norms by intelligence officers in the conduct of "civil-intelligence relations."
