Policing Politics: Security Intelligence and the Liberal Democratic State (Studies in Intelligence) Review

An excellent work Peter Gill pulls few punches in his look at the role of MI5 the British Security Service.An account that is never dull it brings together anecdotal and factual accounts of MI5 activity that breach the authors ideas of what a democratically accountable British Security Service should look and act like. Seeking to contrast the 1989 Security Service Act with its opposite Statutes in; Canada, Australia and the USA Mr Gill makes a powerful case for more openness in MI5 activity.His delineation of the Gore-tex state (or should that be Gannex Peter)and subsequent recommendations make for a powerful argument. A recommended text for both undergraduate students and amateur buffs alike.MR P. Gill teachs Criminology at the John Moore's University in Liverpool England.
