Center for the Study of Intelligence

CSI’s core mission is to enhance the effectiveness of CIA and the Intelligence Community at large. By learning from the past and assessing current practices, CSI prepares intelligence officers for future challenges. CSI publishes the quarterly journal Studies in Intelligence, books, monographs, documentary films, and web-based content. The CIA Museum is also part of CSI’s range of products.

All statements of fact, opinion, or analysis expressed in Studies in Intelligence and publications are those of the authors. They do not necessarily reflect official positions or views of CIA or any other U.S. government entity, past or present. Nothing in the contents should be construed as asserting or implying U.S. government endorsement of an article’s factual statements and interpretations.
