The Handbook of Asian Intelligence Cultures delves into the historical and contemporary influences that have shaped Asian intelligence cultures, as well as the impact of intelligence services on domestic and foreign affairs. By examining thirty Asian countries, the book explores the roles, practices, norms, and oversight of Asias intelligence services, including the ends to which intelligence tools are applied. It argues that there is no archetype of Asian intelligence culture due to the diversity of history, government type, and society found in Asia. Instead, it demonstrates how Asian nations' histories, cultures, and governments play vital roles in intelligence cultures. This book is a valuable study for scholars of intelligence and security services in Asia, shedding light on understudied countries and identifying opportunities for future scholarship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781538159996\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44102239715578,"sku":"9781538159996","price":128.52,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1666963202153_book.jpg?v=1667396370","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-handbook-of-asian-intelligence-cultures-9781538159996","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
