Intelligence Is The Future
Intelligence Applications & Analysis for Law Enforcement

Intelligence Resources

This page provides you with access to dozens of intelligence related documents, PDF files, PowerPoint, Word, and HTML references that may be of interest to intelligence professionals in government and law enforcement at the local, county, tribal, state, and federal levels.  

*** Law Enforcement Analytic Standards, produced by the  International Association of Law Enforcement Intelligence Analysts and the Global Justice Information Sharing Initiative, 2004 http://it.ojp.gov/documents/law_enforcement_analytic_standards.pdf

***  The Law Enforcement Intelligence Guide, developed by Dr David Carter of Michigan State University (through a grant by the COPS program), is the newest publication made available to the public at no charge. Click on the link to be transferred to the COPS site so that you can download your own copy.

*** The Psychology of Intelligence Analysis, authored by Richards Heuer, is a highly recommended resource for anyone desiring to improve their analytical abilities. The site is hosted by the CIA.

This volume pulls together and republishes, with some editing, updating, and additions, articles written during 1978-86 for internal use within the CIA Directorate of Intelligence. Four of the articles also appeared in the Intelligence Community Journal Studies In Intelligence during that period. The information is relatively timeless and still relevant to the never-ending quest for better analysis.

The articles are based on reviewing congnitive psychology literature concerning how people process information to make judgments on incomplete and ambiguous information. The author selected the experiments and findings that seem most relevant to intelligence analysis and most in need of communication to intelligence analysts. He then translated the technical reports into language that intelligence analysts can understand, and interpreted the relevance of these findings to the problems intelligence analysts face.

The result is a compromise that may not be wholly satisfactory to either research psychologists or intellegence analysts. Cognitive psychologists and decision analysts may complain of oversimplification, while the non-psychologist reader may have to absorb some new terminology. Unfortunately, mental processes are so complex that discussion of them does require some specialized vocabulary. Intelligence analysts who have read and thought seriously about the nature of their craft should have no difficulty with this book. Those who are plowing virgin ground may require serious effort.

*** The following Intelligence Is The Future Powerpoint file is a collection of slides from several presentations I have provided the past several years. It had been modified to include some of the resources below, references to select academic programs for law enforcement (including free analytical self-study material from the National HIDTA Assistance Center), recommended literature, and the topic of intelligence sharing and hurdles to overcome.

INTELLIGENCE AND ETHICS CALL FOR PAPERS
The Intelligence Ethics Section (IES) of The Joint Services Conference on
Professional Ethics (JSCOPE) will be holding a 2-day conference on
Friday,     January 27, 3:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Saturday, January 28, 8:30 am - 4:00 pm
At the Springfield Hilton in Springfield, Virginia, just outside Washington,
DC.

Intelligence practitioners and civilian scholars are invited to submit
proposals in the following categories:

*  Academic Papers
*  Working Groups
*  Case Histories and Testimonies
*  Dinner and Luncheon Discussions

Intelligence ethics is an emerging field without established expertise.  It
is the goal of this conference to establish the first international meeting
of civilian and military intelligence professionals, educators and those
with academic perspectives in national security, philosophy, law, history,
psychology, theology and human rights. The Intelligence Ethics Section seeks
voices from all ranks and areas of intelligence and we therefore solicit the
contributions and participation from all interested parties and
perspectives.

Academic Papers

This is a traditional academic lecture format with opportunity for
audience questions.  For consideration, please submit title and abstract to
the IES Program Committee. Sample topics could include general theoretical
themes, (e.g., the relationship between "just intelligence" and
"just war);
broad policy considerations, (e.g., differentiation of ethics in domestic
and foreign intelligence-gathering); and historical overviews, (e.g., use of
intelligence to justify military action).

Working-Groups

Chair a working group by introducing a topic that calls for
consensus or action.
At a final plenary session for working group recommendations (Saturday, 3:00
pm), you will be expected to report on the Working Group goals and progress.
Then after the conference, you will be expected to write a summary (1 to 2
pages) for post-conference
distribution. For consideration, please submit topic and abstract of the
topic that you would like to have discussed to the IES Program Committee.
Sample topics could  include a multi-national intelligence ethos; ethical
principles for any stage of the intelligence cycle; professional code of
ethics for intelligence practitioners; educational standards in teaching
intelligence ethics; an intelligence ethics outreach program to civilian
universities; methods for incorporating victim perspectives on intelligence
policies and operations; creation of an intelligence ethics journal; ethics
dialogue with other professional organizations, (eg., the Association of
Former Intelligence Officers, American. Bar Association or American Civil
Liberties Union).

Case Histories and Testimonies

Present a case history or personal testimony, delineating lessons or
questions for intelligence ethics to be followed with a moderated
discussion. For consideration, please submit an abstract to the IES Program
Committee. Sample cases could include an analyst reports bureaucratic
suppression of an inconvenient intelligence finding; a medical engineer
discovers misuse of a nonlethal weapon by domestic intelligence; or a
counterintelligence agent poses as a military chaplain.


Presentation proposals are due 15 September 2005.  Please submit
electronically, in an RTF or Word file, to

Dr. Jean Maria Arrigo  at  jmarrigo@cox.net
or
Prof. Jan Goldman  at jan.goldman@dia.mil.


Registration

Although there is no registration fee for the Intelligence Ethics
Section
meeting, attendees should plan on joining the Friday dinner and Saturday
lunch discussion groups at the Hilton Springfield Restaurant (dinner
approximately $25 total, lunch approximately $12).
IES attendees are welcome to register for the JSCOPE sessions on
Thursday and Friday, January 26-37, for a modest fee.  See the 2006 Call for
Papers at the JSCOPE web site:  http://atlas.usafa.af.mil/jscope/.

Crime Analysis in America (440K) – 1/28/2003
This is the final report of a COPS funded study conducted by the University of South Alabama concerning the nation's law enforcement crime analysis units. Researchers conducted national telephone interviews, mail surveys, and site visits in order to develop a comprehensive understanding of the state of crime analysis in the United States. The researchers also provide recommendations on ways that local law enforcement agencies can enhance and develop their own crime analysis capabilities.

Crime Analysis in America: Findings and Recommendations (168K) – 4/1/2003
While crime analysts have traditionally emphasized tactical analysis activities like identifying offenders, community policing encourages more focus on strategic and problem analysis functions. This includes identifying the underlying conditions that give rise to community problems, developing responses to them that are linked to these analyses, assessing the effectiveness of responses, and developing long-term organizational operational plans. This guide is a product of the findings of a recent study conducted by the University of South Alabama documenting the state of crime analysis in the nation's law enforcement agencies. These findings and recommendations are intended to inform police managers of the structural issues to address when considering a crime analysis function within a community policing context. They are also intended to expose the current limitations of crime analysis and the policies that those findings imply.

Problem Analysis in Policing (641K) – 4/21/2003
Problem Analysis in Policing introduces and defines problem analysis and provides guidance on how problem analysis can be integrated and institutionalized into modern policing practices. The 64-page report is not a "how-to" guide on conducting problem analysis, but is a summary of what problem analysis is, what skills and knowledge are necessary to conduct it, and how it can be advanced by the law enforcement community, academia, the federal government, and other institutions. The ideas and recommendations in this report come primarily from a two-day forum conducted in February 2002 by the Police Foundation and the COPS Office that brought a group of academics, practitioners, and policy makers together to discuss problem analysis and make recommendations for its progress. This report is a culmination of the concepts and ideas discussed in the forum and includes specific, relevant statements made by participants.

Problem-Solving Tips: A Guide to Reducing Crime and Disorder through Problem-Solving Partnerships (413K) – 7/29/2002
Problem-Solving Tips: A Guide to Reducing Crime and Disorder through Problem-Solving Partnerships is intended to serve as a reference for those in all stages of implementing the problem-solving approach. The guide contains insights into every stage of the process, most of which are drawn from the experience of law enforcement officers in the field. This guide relies on the SARA model: scanning, analyzing, response, and assessment of problems.

Tackling Crime and Other Public-Safety Problems: Case Studies in Problem-Solving
This compilation provides detailed descriptions of nearly 50 problem-oriented policing efforts dealing with a wide-variety of specific crime and social disorder problems. Editor’s notes are included after each section detailing the noteworthy aspects of each effort.

The Law Enforcement Tech Guide: How to plan, purchase and manage technology (successfully!) – 9/1/2002
The Law Enforcement Tech Guide presents best practices in strategic IT planning and procurement, reveals pitfalls to avoid, and consolidates and expands upon various sources of relevant information currently available. The Guide reviews best practices to help create a user-friendly product that will provide law enforcement with the tools they need to successfully achieve their IT goals. Contact the U.S. Department of Justice Response Center at 800.421.6770 to obtain hard copies.

Using Analysis for Problem-Solving: A Guide Book for Law Enforcement (344K) – 9/14/2001
This Guide provides law enforcement practitioners with a resource for conducting problem analysis. It summarizes many challenges of the analysis phase of the problem-solving process. This book builds on the foundation presented in Problem-Solving Tips: A Guide to Reducing Crime and Disorder Through Problem-Solving Partnerships, and complements the Problem-Oriented Guides for Police Series. The Guide also identifies tools for analysis and proposes tips for effectively using each tool.
