The Commission’s new “intelligence cell” could backfire, pulling analysis into a political space and making EU states share less, not more. Our Euractiv piece explains why trust, not expansion, is the real bottleneck. @dvanp.bsky.social @evamichaels.bsky.social

Received a nice surprise in the post today, the amazing new @georgetownup.bsky.social volume on Covert Action edited by the dream team of @magslong.bsky.social, Genevive Lester, @markstout.bsky.social, @dvanp.bsky.social & @rorycormac.bsky.social. Stellar contributors, though Chp 9 seems suspect😉
We are seeking active researchers who can connect the study of intelligence & security to broader scholarly and policy debates.

Many thanks Lewis. Oops, I think we based this point on your (excellent) PhD thesis 😅. I guess we meant foundational not in a historical way but more in terms of what have become common practices.
In this article we:
- Make a distinction between OSINT, OSINF, and OSINV
- Trace the development of OSINT as a community of practice
- Argue against the establishment of a dedicated government agency
- Explore the implications of OSINT's rise on public understanding of security today
