Description

MI6 and the Machinery of Spying is a study of the organizational evolution of Britain's Secret Intelligence Service (SIS, aka MI6). It traces the development of the agency's internal structure from its inception until the end of the Cold War. The analysis examines how SIS's management structure has been driven by its operational environment on the one hand and its position within the machinery of British central government on the other. Particularly close attention is paid to the agency's institutional links to its consumers in Whitehall and Downing Street, as well as to the causes and consequences of its operational organization and provisions for counter-espionage and security. This book challenges long-standing perceptions that SIS is poorly organized and chronically mismanaged, as well as claims that it was traditionally unaccountable to political oversight and control.
