Abstract
The post-Cold-War era ushered in a time of much soul-searching for intelligence. With the demise of the ‘Soviet Issue’, there was increased uncertainty about what the future might hold (Gray, 2008; see also Agrell, 2009; Betts, 2010; Davis, 2008; Lawson et al., 2010).1 This was especially apparent in the context of the post-Cold-War ‘peace dividend’ intelligence budget cuts witnessed in the early 1990s (Kennedy, 1993; Lowenthal, 2006, pp. 220–231).2
