ABSTRACT This article examines the role played by the National Security Council Intelligence Committee (NSCIC) and its working group in responding to senior policymaker criticism of IC analytic products. Established in December 1971 and abolished four years later, the NSCIC has received scant attention from intelligence historians despite representing in some ways the most ambitious initiative ever attempted to involve consumers in determining what intelligence was produced and evaluating its quality and usefulness. The NSCIC’s problematic history highlights the challenges still confronting the IC and the study of it may suggest ways to make future intelligence products more useful to consumers.

ABSTRACT This paper offers an alternative to the conventional wisdom about early congressional oversight of the CIA. It focuses on congressional structures, how they influenced the development of intelligence oversight, the intelligence politics that grew out of these structures and the growth in congressional interest in CIA’s analysis and collection. Moving beyond questions about whether intelligence oversight was sufficient, this paper shows how CIA analysis and collection became an input for legislative decision-making through oversight and highlights the key role congressional staff played in overseeing the CIA. It also examines how Congress used Agency information to check or support the executive branch, as well as how the executive branch influenced congressional oversight development.

ABSTRACT The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is the United States’ primary domestically-oriented intelligence service. Opportunities for the collection of foreign intelligence exist within the United States. Two narratives regarding foreign intelligence collection run through the primary source record of Bureau history. The first narrative is that foreign intelligence information is a byproduct of the Bureau’s reactive investigations of threats to national security and the second is that the Bureau has exploited opportunities to develop foreign intelligence as a distinct objective. This latter narrative is supported by a lengthy legacy of activities directed at gathering foreign intelligence and at facilitating the collection of foreign intelligence by other agencies. Identifying and selecting a narrative of foreign intelligence collection will help the Bureau to incorporate this consideration into its future evolution.
