ABSTRACT
The Committee learned, as well about Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) covert actions aimed at preventing the election of Salvador Allende of Chile, and, if he were elected, operations to destroy his regime. The bridges that link the CIA to America’s campuses are multiple and well-traveled. The Intelligence Authorization Act of 1997 demonstrated that relationships between the CIA and journalists in the United States can be guided by statute. The theoretical approach may incorporate intelligence in the classroom as a module in a mix of other topics related to decision-making in international affairs, such as the war powers, the treaty powers, economic statecraft, development assistance, and the soft powers of cultural and moral suasion. In contrast, and similar to a business school model, the clinical teaching of intelligence is career-oriented: giving students an edge in the competition for jobs and promotions in a nation’s intelligence hierarchy.
