Rivalités et coopérations : le renseignement britannique et l’Europe de 1914 à nos jours

Rivalry and Cooperation: British Intelligence and Europe since 1914
Edited by Émilie Berthillot and Mona Parra

Despite the increased focus on intelligence agencies, particularly since the damning revelations of Edward Snowden, they are still on the margins of research in humanities and social sciences. However, it is becoming increasingly clear that intelligence has been playing a central role for military and political decision-makers, all the more so since the two World Wars and the Cold War. British agencies have had an excellent reputation due to their involvement in numerous international military conflicts, and they are an important asset to the “special relationship” with the United States.
While intelligence studies focus on this relationship and on the lack of extensive collaboration in Europe, this issue aims to analyse the degree to which the relationship between British and European agencies has been defined by rivalry and cooperation. Due to Britain’s isolated geographic position and its ambiguous relation with Europe, its close partnership with its European counterparts is often overlooked.
This issue of ILCEA collates transdisciplinary work analysing international relations among intelligence services throughout the twentieth century and to this day.
