Abstract:
In 1918 Harold Nicolson in discussing the problem of political intelligence observed that ‘any forecast of diplomatic development must inevitably deal, not with concentric forces, but with eccentric tendencies; such data as are available emerge only from a mass of heterogeneous phenomena, mutually conflicting, mutually overlapping, and striving each towards some distinct and often incompatible solution’. At the time Nicolson was writing the Foreign Office was embarking upon an early attempt to assist diplomacy through analysing these eccentric tendencies and coordinating the information emanating from the heterogeneous phenomena of foreign affairs. The vehicle for this experiment was the Political Intelligence Department (P.I.D.), and its experience contains elements common to intelligence activity throughout this century: the need for co-ordination which in turn leads to a struggle for control of the co-ordinating body, the suspicion aroused in traditional departments by any group involved in intelligence work, the pressure of the Treasury to cut costs even at the expense of useful intelligence operations, and the struggle between the prime minister's office and the Foreign Office for the control of policy. Since the turn of the century there had been a growing awareness of the need for foreign intelligence, a development which finally resulted in the creation of an espionage service in 1909 (the ancestor of the Secret Intelligence Service). This department, however, concentrated on military related intelligence. During the First World War it became evident, particularly to Lord Hardinge, the Permanent Under-Secretary at the Foreign Office, that while there were numerous sources of political intelligence, no systematic method had been established for collecting and collating this information, verifying it against collateral sources, and synthesizing the result in succinct reports which would be of value to the policy-makers. Military intelligence was clearly the preserve of the Admiralty and the War Office, and the Foreign Office decided to establish that political intelligence fell within its purview. In the process of establishing Foreign Office primacy in this sphere, Hardinge had to fend off attempts by Lord Beaverbrook who as Minister of Information tried to use his personal political clout to control such intelligence. This was, however, only one of several bureaucratic difficulties, the P.I.D. was forced to struggle with. Finally in 1920 the P.I.D. was closed through a combination of financial and bureaucratic pressures. During its brief existence, though, it was able to prove the utility of a centralized body concerned with political intelligence. In some ways it presaged the work of the Joint Intelligence Committee (J.I.C.), which in a more sophisticated and elaborate way is meant, to achieve the same ends.

Abstract:
This article deals with the study of the views of the Soviet intelligence on the so-called short-lived “Caliphate movement”, which originates from the then British India. Even after its official abolition in 1924, this institution did not lose its symbolic appeal for Muslims across the world. As an idea it continued offering the Muslims a sense of the umma i.e. the global community of Muslims. The author offers the Soviet intelligence interpretation of the idea of the Caliphate movement in the context of the Soviet “eastern” foreign policy. The article describes this issue through the prism of interaction between the Eastern Department of the OGPU (USSR Secret service) and Musa Bigiyev, a prominent Russian Muslim leader of the 19th–20th cent. Based on hitherto unknown archival materials and the most recent Russian and foreign historical studies, the author offers a comparative analysis of the attitudes of various Soviet and Communist Party institutions to the Caliphate idea and the Caliphate movement in the context of anti-colonial, anti-European struggle. In conclusion article shows the discrepancy between the strategy and tactics of Soviet intelligence services as opposed to the views of European (in particular, British) intelligence services. As a result, these activities contributed to the restriction of independence of the Russian Muslim elite on one handside, strengthening the anti-Caliphate feelings and Islamophobic views among the Soviet management elite on the other.

Abstract:
This study investigates the impact of emotional intelligence on the political and work skills of Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) employees in Region XI during the post-pandemic era. The study objectives are to determine the levels of political skills, work engagement, and emotional intelligence among DENR employees in Region XI, and to examine whether emotional intelligence plays a mediating role in the relationship between political skills and work engagement during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using a descriptive-correlational analysis, data was collected from a sample of 282 DENR employees, with the sample size determined using Taro Yamane’s formula. The findings revealed that interpersonal influence had the highest mean among the indicators of political skills, indicating its frequent manifestation among DENR employees. Additionally, self-awareness exhibited the highest mean among the indicators of emotional intelligence, highlighting its significant presence. Moreover, emotional work engagement obtained the highest mean, demonstrating its consistent occurrence along with the other indicators. Significant correlations were observed between political skills and work engagement, emotional intelligence and political skills, and emotional intelligence and work engagement, rejecting the null hypothesis. Furthermore, the study uncovered a significant mediating effect of emotional intelligence on the relationship between political skills and work engagement, suggesting that employees with higher emotional intelligence are more likely to be actively engaged in their work. Such heightened emotional intelligence enables DENR employees to effectively manage their own emotions and understand the emotions of others, thereby facilitating the navigation of complex social and political dynamics through a deeper comprehension of diverse perspectives and motivations. Based on these findings, it is recommended that DENR employees engage in self-assessments of their emotional intelligence skills, reflecting on their behaviors, attitudes, and interactions with others. Furthermore, comprehensive training courses, seminars, and workshops led by professionals should be provided to actively enhance emotional intelligence competencies.

Abstract:
The US Government has initiated a large-scale activity on artificial intelligence (AI) development and implementation. Numerous departments and agencies including the Pentagon, intelligence community and citizen agencies take part in these efforts. Some of them are responsible for technology, materials and standards development. Others are customers of AI. State AI efforts receive significant budget funding. Moreover, Department of Defense costs on AI are comparable with the whole non-defense funding. American world-leading IT companies support state departments and agencies in organizing AI technologies development and implementation. The USA's highest military and political leadership supports such efforts. Congress provides significant requested funding. However leading specialists criticize the state's approach to creating and implementing AI. Firstly, they consider authorized assignments as not sufficient. Secondly, even this funding is used ineffectively. Therefore Congress created National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence (NSCAI) in 2018 for identifying problems in the AI area and developing solutions. This article looks at the stakeholders and participants of the state AI efforts, the budget funding authorization, the major existing problems and the NSCAI conclusions regarding the necessary AI funding in FYs 2021-2032.

Abstract:
Abstract Drawing on recently declassified Chinese sources, this article traces the history of open-source intelligence (OSINT) research in the PRC and discusses its impact on Chinese foreign policymaking during the Cold War. From the time the Fourth Bureau of the Central Investigation Department (CID) was founded, it was headed by veteran intelligence expert Xue Qiao, who collected and analyzed OSINT to produce intelligence estimates for Chinese political leaders. These intelligence estimates covered a host of global and regional topics crucial for Chinese foreign policy, including U.S. politics and foreign policy, decolonization movements in the Third World, and political and economic developments around the world. Available evidence shows that politics and ideology marred the quality of China's OSINT research. When Mao Zedong launched the Great Leap Forward in the late 1950s, the CID's intelligence estimates were distorted to advance his radical political agenda. Later on, China's intelligence research came under attack during Mao's Cultural Revolution. Kang Sheng and other radicals attacked OSINT analysts as traitors, and the CID ceased to function in the late 1960s and 1970s. After Mao's death, the CID was revived, but its intelligence estimates no longer served the new Chinese leader, Deng Xiaoping. Deng's personal tension with CID Director Luo Qingchang, who had criticized him during the Cultural Revolution, hindered the CID's estimates. This political schism in the post-Mao years contributed to the CID's dissolution in 1983.

Abstract:
This chapter presents a multivariate analysis method which is developed in two steps using a combination of Hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) and Factorial Correspondence Analysis (AFC). To explain and describe the steps of the method, we use an application example on a survey dataset from young students in Thessaloniki trying to investigate their behavioral profiles in terms of political characteristics and how these may be affected about their attendance to a civic education course offered by the Political Science department in the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. The method is explained step by step on this example serving as a manual of its application to the researcher. HCA assigns subjects into cluster membership variables and in the next stage, these new variables are jointly analyzed with AFC. Correspondence analysis manages to extract the dimensions of the phenomenon in the study, explaining the inner antithesis between the categories but also giving the opportunity to visualize the information in a two-dimensional space, a semantic map, making interpretation more comprehensive. HCA is then applied again to the AFC’s coordinates of the categories constructing profiles of subjects, assigning them to the categories of the variables.

Abstract:
Chapter 1 traces the evolution in Italians’ social, political, and economic status in the United States, beginning with the effects of early twentieth-century immigration law, and conveys how their integration into American society influenced wartime policies. This chapter argues that Italians’ progression in the labor market coincided with their changing racial identity and white consciousness, but that political involvement was more instrumental in raising the public perception of Italians. This chapter also explains how the FBI built a domestic intelligence program through the collection of information about subversive individuals or organizations several years before U.S. involvement in World War II. A joint agreement in July 1941 between the War Department and the Justice Department established policy for handling suspicious persons of enemy nations residing in the United States.

Abstract:
The Third Option assumes several forms, such as clandestine radio broadcasts and sabotage. This opening chapter explores these different kinds of covert action, within the categories of propaganda, political action, economic action, and paramilitary operations. A hush-hush organization like the Central Intelligence Agency (the CIA, responsible for the conduct of covert action) runs counter to the ethos of an open, democratic society. Given the forbearance in this country for this incongruity, a fundamental question raised in this chapter also ties the book together: Of what value has the Agency actually been in trying to contour global events, as a complement to the federal government’s more open national security organizations, such as the Department of State (DoS) and the Department of Defense (DoD)?

Abstract This chapter presents a new account of the Cambridge Marlowe Society’s participation in the Elizabethan Festival in Berlin in 1948, in particular the participation within it of military intelligence officer and Cambridge academic Noel Annan and Education Adviser Robert Birley. Planned before the Airlift to instil confidence in British political and cultural leadership, the Festival, including George Rylands’s production of Measure for Measure, became a celebration of German resistance to the Russian blockade and an anticipation of West Germany’s future role in Europe. The chapter evaluates competing readings of the political and cultural agencies involved in the organization of the Festival, questions the alleged participation of the British Council, suggests the possible involvement of the Cultural Relations Department (CRD) and links this to the perceived importance of the Marlowe Society’s ‘Western’ freedom from political alignment.

Abstract:
In Washington for a short meeting ahead of the summit, while back home the political support for our peace policy was vanishing. Arafat had better control of his home front. At the State Department meeting, Secretary Albright introduced a dense timetable, and promised a tight American involvement. The Palestinians rebelled against what they saw as “an ultimatum” and an Israeli-American trap. To them, Camp David was not the definitive opportunity, but only one in a series of summits. They would, eventually, be proved right. Yet the Americans were resolute and encouraging, for they had detected in the Palestinian positions, they said, the components of a possible agreement. Faulty political intelligence or sheer misreading of the organizational culture on the Palestinian side? Allaying Arafat’s misgivings, they advised, should be a major task we, the Israelis, needed to assume.

Abstract:
This chapter examines depth in appointment, focusing on the tension between qualifications for administrative office and expectations for presidential control. What Trump’s administration has brought to the fore are the suspicions harbored by a unitary executive toward qualifications per se and in the broadest sense of the term. Ability, sound judgment, commitment to assigned duties are all presumptive conditions on presidential control, implicit limits on political subordination, anticipated brakes on personal will. Conversely, the demand for executive branch unity elevates loyalty above all other qualifications. Here, we offer snapshots of the drive to dissolve administrative qualifications into loyalty to the president at several sites, considering: a hybrid arrangement at the National Security Council; the use of acting appointments at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, Department of Homeland Security, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau; the assault on merit-based appointments for administrative law judges; and protections against at-will removal at independence agencies like the Federal Reserve.

Abstract:
This chapter recounts how Lieutenant General Charles, the Earl of Cornwallis assumed the office of governor-general of India. It describes how he spent a considerable amount of time reading the latest intelligence reports from India — these included general intelligence estimates on the society, population and military strength of the increasingly disparate Indian political entities as the Mughal empire gradually fragmented, as well as more specific information collected on local rulers and military states. The chapter underlines how all of this helped to frame Cornwallis's understanding of the situation he could expect to find when he arrived in India. The chapter then shifts to discuss Britain's main opponent during Cornwallis's governor-generalship: Tipu Sultan of Mysore. It outlines how the combination of a detailed awareness of the military history of Mysore and of the wider history of the Indian subcontinent helped Tipu to transform his military. The chapter analyzes how Tipu Sultan posed a substantial threat to the British position in South India. More mobile, and capable in turn of neutralising British mobility, armed with longer-range weapons, and benefitting from larger numbers of infantry trained in European methods of warfighting, this chapter highlights that Tipu outmatched the British in nearly every department.

Abstract:
In this paper we present our ongoing research where we are attempting to integrate sustainable development issues into a megagame designed to teach cybersecurity. There are several serious games that have been developed to teach and inform individuals about sustainability issues but none that deal specifically with both cybersecurity and sustainability issues. A Megagame is a multiplayer game with between 30-40 players who play in teams of 3-5 players that take on specific roles in dealing with complex problems that cover subject matters ranging from science fiction and heroic fantasy to political, economic, historical, and even cyber conflicts. We have built and tested a megagame entitled CS -Technopoly using the socio-technical framework of sustainability proposed by Geels and integrated it further with the Security by Consensus Model proposed by Kowalski. The intended learning objectives of the game, such as teaching adversarial and sustainable systems thinking by exposing the students to cyber threat intelligence reports and cyber security investments decision making, were tested by performing semi-structured interviews of a stratified sample of the participants. Preliminary results from 11 interviews from the two first trials of CS Technopoly indicate that the participating security experts found that C.S. Technopoly would be a useful tool for team building and improving collaboration between security departments and upper strategic management
