The transformation of South African foreign intelligence in a global context : resources, functions and case study.

The primary focus of this dissertation is the transformation of South Africa's foreign intelligence service. This transformation is seen in the light of the individual histories of the pre-1994 intelligence services (state, homelands and liberation movement) which contributed to the new structures. The legislation which governs these structures is examined. The role of intelligence in supporting foreign policy is discussed in the context of changing patterns of global politics and security concerns. The dissertation concludes with an attempt to draw up an 'intelligence agenda' for South
Africa's new service and a discussion of the potential and limits of intelligence, using the Zimbabwe crisis as a case study. / Thesis (M.A.)-University of Natal, Durban, 2001.
